If I could give one example: In August of 1992. after Hurricane Andrew hit south Dade County. FLa major agricultural production areathere was concern about a public health epidemic and therefore there was the desire to have people immunized against a variety of potential diseases. The public health officials found it extremely difficult to get the agricultural workers to come forward to be immunized for their own protection and the protection of the general public because they knew they were illegal and were afraid that. by presenting themselves for an immunization shot. they would be making themselves subject to deportation. That is the kind of fear and terror in which we have over 600.000 human beings in the United States. who are harvesting our food. live on a daily basis. Finally. the current system fails the American consumer.
