VASS, N.C. — A Vass company that secures foreign workers for agricultural and other work in the U.S. is accused of manipulating the worker visa program and illegally funneling people to companies.
A federal grand jury in Greensboro handed down a 41-count indictment last Friday against International Labor Management Corp., founder and owner Craig Stanford “Stan” Eury Jr. and president Sarah Elizabeth Farrell, who is Eury’s daughter. The government is seeking to seize at least $1.1 million in property that authorities say was involved in the alleged illegal activities.
Kearns Davis, a Greensboro attorney representing Eury and Farrell, said they and the company “flatly deny” the allegations and will “aggressively defend” their operations.

Thanks to NC House Speaker Thom Tillis and other AG Reps, E-Verify job protection (H786) was eliminated for seasonal labor jobs.
NCFIRE, NCListen, and a small group of NC Reps. argued at the time that this was not just AG labor, but ALL “seasonal labor” jobs.
