They are saying they would like to withhold their services for a week.
Do you think it would have any serious impact?
Your thoughts?

Yes it was El Chile. I thought you posed a valid point and I turned it into a question to see what the responses would be.
Perhaps you should have posed the question instead...

Btw, it would have zero impact on me.
I live in the southwest. We don't hire illegals in our local economy.

I live in Arizona and it has not had any impact yet. There was an article where they want to boycott in summer months and no dent yet in the economy here in the negative. If they do it, I want them to strike in Snow Bird Season; that way when the economy is really booming; we shall see if there was an impact. This is the slow months now, and if it isn't doing a thing now, imagine when we get all those people who will spend big time. And dang it, the Suns will be awesome this year! ! !

I say bring it on, I am tired of being told that the we as a country would cease to exist if all the illegals were not here.
Most of us cut our own yards, clean our own houses, and if a few hundred rich folks have to wait a few weeks to have their yards cut, so be it. What is so ironic is that the rich folks in Beverly hills and other wealthy communities could pay and should pay more for their hired help, because they are rich, but while they get cheap help, we the tax payers pick up the tab for their children's education, health care, and the illegals jackpot babies (used to be called anchor babies)

Good let them. The irony would be that they would loose their jobs to an illegal alien. An illegal alien would not hesitate to take the job of a person who supported their cause.

A very minor impact, I hope they do it. Then it will show those who are scared that there is no reason to fear sending them all back.. Get them out of the US!
What did the USA do before the invasion?....I think we did just fine, and will do just fine again...GET RID OF THEM !

No impact at all even if they could get the "strike" going. We don't need them, they need US!!

Inform police depts.(ones that aren't corrupt.)
Have them go to the places of employment that are known to employ illegals.
Round them up.
Problem solved.

Of course it'll affect. But one week is symbolic.
Wait a little bit more without cheap labor and INFLATION will make the USA people poorer.
But don't believe me, if you don't want to. You just follow your leaders.
