Under the provisions of "The Labor Certification Act". the temporary Mexican workers who will come to the United States. would be excluded from jobs in states where it was certified that there .was an adequate supply of American workers. The existing H2 temporary worker program would continue to operate. During the trial period. this experimental program would be evaluated for its impact on American workers. the feasibility of enforcing the programs restrictions. and the overall benefit to the United States. Mass migrations of undocumented aliens to the United States are a recent phenomenon. They are also a phenomenon for which the nation is woefully ill prepared. and the conseauences of our unreadiness have been disastrous. The 1980 Mariel boatlift brought a wave of 125.000 Cubans to the beaches of south Florida.
