Summary:

Examines potential labor market effects of the H-2C guest worker program proposed in S. 2611, the Comprehensive Immigration Reform Act of 2006, to allow a limited number of lower-skilled foreign workers to enter the U.S. on a temporary basis. Provides program description, analyzes characteristics of competing lower-skilled U.S. workers, and examines possible effects of a provision in S. 2611 to prohibit the hiring of H-2C workers in areas with high unemployment rates among unskilled workers.
