The problem is that they (Congress) will screw it up, just as they are doing with health care. In the end, anything that passes will be for the benefit of the wealthy and for corporations, not for the people.

Farmworker Justice The House health care reform, HR 3962, is important, but most farmworkers are left out since most are undocumented. Employers got a vulnerable labor force. America got its crops harvested. Farmworkers got a vulnerable status, low wages and exclusion from health care. Immigration reform is needed more than ever.

"Health care reform" is turning out to be "Save the insurance companies' profits". Don't imagine immigration reform will be any different- except for whose profits they're protecting.
