The samemight also be said for other aspects of. our economy as well. On June 14. I emphasized the gravity of Guams labor difficulties in a statement before the Immigration Subcommittee. Shortly thereafter. Congressman EILBERG and his colleagues went to Guam for a firsthand look at the problems which I described. I am pleased to say that their committee report on H.R. 981 expertly states Guams labor shortage problems. and I quote: In recent hearings held by a special immigration study group on Guam. it was found that the restrictions on the admission of H2 workers has had a severe impact on Guams economy . . . The current restriction on the admission of temporary workers to Guam has had the effect of placing Japanese and other foreign investors in a better competitive economic position than American businessmen. The Committee believes this to be patently unfair and feels that the removal of the temporary workers restrictions will enable American employers in Guam to compete on a more equal basis.
