The reason why domestic laborers will not pick fruit can best be summed up in one sentence: "Domestic workers prefer less menial jobs and can get them for the same pay." Mr. Speaker. the inconsistent actions of this administration become more confusing daily. The President has announced that he wants a revision in the immigration laws with the goal of allowing more people from foreign lands to live and work in the United States. In this proposal. there is assurance from the administration that the domestic labor market will not be harmed. But. the unemployment situation in the United States is used as justification for not allowing offshore labor to come into this country and pick Floridas crops.
