Yet. this guest worker program provides the control necessary to monitor the movements of foreign workers while they remain in this country. Mr. President. our labor and immigration policies should be designed to ensure that a dependable labor force will be available to harvest the Nations agricultural products. This amendment will help us achieve that goal. and I urge my colleagues to support It. Mr. President. our labor and immigratirn policy should be designed to ensure that people will be available to harvest the Nations agricultural products. and I urge my colleagues to support it. I say again that out there in the real world. where the produce is being harvested. there is an illegal guest worker program in place right now. It is happening whether we like to think about it in the Senate or not. That is what is going on. We should keep that in mind when we pass legislation that calls for immigration reform. in view of what is happening in Central America. where we have more and more people voting with their feet to escape places like Nicaragua and the turmoil that is on the burner of Castro and Daniel Ortega and others. and what their plans are for Mexico. I think the question of immigration reform is bigger than just passing this legislation. Specifically. without this amendment. this legislation simply will not do what the authors intend it to do. It will not give us reform.
