So maybe we need a temporary worker program. I agree with my colleague who just spoke that if the pay and benefit package and health care and these things that go with those jobs were a decent wage. I think in some instances. Mr. Speaker. they are. but in some instances. maybe far too many. they are not. If they were. then there are plenty of legal aliens. legal immigrants. United States citizens who are out of work today who would take those jobs. Now. everybody says. well. golly. we have this low unemployment rate of 4.5 percent. Well. that is 4.5 percent of people without jobs.
