Chairman. right now there are people who are working 18 to 20 hours a day under threat of beatings and torture. One might think I am describing a Third World country. but I am not. Right now these crimes are repeated in virtually every major city in this country. Why? Because the victims of these crimes are undocumented immigrants and their tormentors are using fear to silence them. Last July a group of disabled Mexican immigrants were discovered living in squalor in my district. They had been taken from their villages in Mexico. smuggled into this country. and forced to work to up to 18 hours a day. If they did not earn enough money. they were beaten.
