<br/><br/> "The U.S. government is allowing farmers to fill thousands of jobs with foreign 'guestworkers.' The conditions are hardly hospitable--but those who speak out can be sent straight back home." (MOTHER JONES) The author discusses the importation of migrant workers under the federal H-2A program, noting that the program offers low wages and effectively turns away domestic workers while foreign workers are seemingly subjected to substandard conditions.
