Summary: Jim Serowski, founder of JVS Masonry in Commerce City, Colorado, knew his employees planned to participate in "A Day Without Immigrants." His position to them was clear:
"If you're going to stand up for what you believe in, you have to be willing to pay the price." They were instantly fired. Other participants went back to work Friday. the rest got phone calls or text messages telling them not to come back.
Analysis: Before this aricle, I knew of Trumps ban on immigrants and the protests, but knowing the business world, skipping out on work ONE time for a protest gets you a warning, not termination. Now I know that business owners would be feeling some type of way, but this is just going to far just because some are expressing their first amendment.
