That is wrong. because we know what has happened. Foreign workers come on in. and they are forced to work longer and harder and are in the position where they refuse to complain because they know if they do complain. they are going to have their green card pulled and will be sent back to their country of origin. We have the record. that happens. and that is wrong. That amendment no. 1.
