It has been mentioned that this is in some way a bracero program. My friends. this is not. Under the Bracero Program. for example. there was no right of first refusal for U.S. workers to available jobs in our country. That is what is different hereU.S. workers first. first dibs on any available position. Point No. 2: There has been discussion that this amendment would in some way increase illegal immigration. Right now. of the 1.6 million farm workers. perhaps a million of them are illegal. What we are advocating is an aboveground system that guarantees fundamental protections to legal workers.
