General Comment

I write to oppose the proposed changes to the H-2A temporary foreign agricultural
worker program. The systematic abuse of foreign and domestic laborers by
powerful corporate interests is a basic and important human right. The Department
of Labor should enhance, not erode the protections available to our workers under
the law. It is also immoral to give fewer protections to "the strangers among you"
than your own people. Deuteronomy.
