Help wanted in Colorado — from Mexico

http://www.rockymountainnews.com/dr...5679349,00.html

Two lawmakers from farm districts want Colorado to be the first state to create a guest worker program allowing immigrants to get visas to work here legally.

They plan to introduce a bill in January to establish a pilot program that calls for Colorado to open an employment office in Mexico.

"If we don't find a way to address the labor shortage, we're going to be in trouble," Looper said. "As it stands now, 40 percent of the state's produce is rotting on the vine."

You have to attend 5 interviews a week for unemployment; unemployment is usually very short-term out here, and abuse isn't much of an issue, just for folks hit by downsizing and the sort.
