Illegal immigrants selling fake documentation to help others in their situation obtain work

On a strip in Adams Morgan, two miles north of where legislators pass laws to protect the nation’s borders, crews of illegal immigrants sell fake documents to help other illegal immigrants break those laws.

For two decades, the men have been peddlingtheir illicit wares on Columbia Road between 18th and 16th avenues, an unintended consequence of the last immigration reform, which required employees to provide documentation proving they could legally work in the U.S.
