Mexican labor contract policy stalled by law amendment
The Mexican labor contract program for areas with local labor shortages is stalled awaiting a legal amendment. The U S Mexican contract labor pact expired January 1 and was extended 15 days by joint agreement. U S spokesmen resisted Mexican wage demands, while processing of Mexican nationals faced a halt after the Comptroller General ruled processing required an existing international agreement. Both House and Senate Agriculture committees introduced resolutions to permit processing again, with expected near-term changes.
