Re: Prisoners to replace migrant laborers in Colorado



60 cents a  day! Is this possible!

Cheers Ken Hanly

Under the program, which has drawn criticism from
groups concerned about immigrants? rights and
from others seeking changes in the criminal
justice system, farmers will pay a fee to the
state, and the inmates, who volunteer for the
work, will be paid about 60 cents a day, corrections
officials said.
