Doesn't matter here. The examples cited here are Starbucks and Ulta Beauty, neither of which are big on hiring illegal or foreign workers.

Hundreds of thousand of foreigners were given work permits by the previous administration. You can see all the companies they highlight in the report here. Many do hire foreign workers: https://ips-dc.org/wp-content/uploads/2025/08/executive_exce...

Clearly there foreign workers at Starbucks or there would not be protests: According to the popular videos circulating over the Internet, Starbucks halted a few minutes of their services across the nation as a form of protest against the recent “illegal deportation of immigrants.” "We are stopping work for a few minutes to read a statement in protest of actions against our fellow workers," Starbucks Workers United members at the Ellicott City location in Maryland said in a statement during their strike on April 1.
