Guest workers and immigration bill: Labor finally speaks out
The AFL-CIO announced yesterday that it finds itself in a different possition from the Change-to-Win coalition regarding the issues. The AFL-CIO has rejected the inclusion of a guest worker program in the McCain-Kennedy immigration bill that ''by their very nature harm the interests of foreign – and U.S.-born workers alike,'' but the Change-to-Win coalition supports the guest-worker program in the bill, although it says it will strive to add a series of needed protections for temporary immigrant workers.
