The Carter administration recently announced that it would seek an appropriation of $300 million for financial assistance to Cuban aliens who have entered this country recently. many of them illegally. Unlike the motor carrier employees. the Cubans are not citizens of the United States and have not made an important contribution to our Nation. They are not even taxpayers. If railroad employees. auto workers. steel workers. forestry workers and even illegal aliens are entitled to financial assistance. why are not workers in the motor carrier industry? I am hopeful that the legislation before us will not cause any disruption in the motor carrier industry. If it is administered as I understand its intention. we should not see a measurable dislocation of employees.
