NPR : Border Fence Firm Snared for Hiring Illegal Workers
They won a contract to build part of the US-Mexico Border fence. However:
After an immigration check in 1999 found undocumented workers on its payroll, Golden State promised to clean house. But when followup checks were made in 2004 and 2005, some of those same illegal workers were still on the job. In fact, U-S Attorney Carol Lam says as many as a third of the company's 750 workers may have been in the country illegally.
Pure irony that they get fined $5 million for employing illegal laborers.

Pure irony would be if the illegals really were fired, but they snuck back into their jobs by climbing the company's fence (I would also accept tunneling under it).
