He says he has in the past voted for the Mexican labor bill because he was anxious to do something to improve the lot of the Mexican workers. This bill has the same reasons behind it as the original bill. It was primarily to protect the Mexican worker. who before the program was referred to as a wetback. He was slipping across the border. staying away from the immigration authorities. being mistreated and exploited. Since we have had the program that situation has greatly improved. The Mexican worker is by this program protected by regulations of the Department of Labor.
