On the recordApril 30, 2003
They are getting into services, into the telemarketing, into the processing and all of these kinds of things. Digitizing of photos and photo libraries. They are getting into an unbelievable number of things. Some are highly sensitive. What the gentleman has laid out I would like to think is nowhere in the realm of possibility, but I should know better. I would never have thought that they could have grown by 25 percent in office furniture or 16 percent overall this past year. I would never have thought in their annual report that they would have publicized and highlighted the fact that they are paying all of 23 cents an hour up to $1.50. They are proud of it and proud of their results. This Department of Justice has demonstrated through their annual report, even though the original criteria said minimal impact on workers and American taxpayers, they are not abiding by that standard anymore. They are ruthlessly and aggressively going out to try to transfer jobs from the private sector and move them into Federal Prison Industries.
