Stephen Colbert to Congress "It seems like one of the least powerful people in the United States are migrant workers who come and do our work but don 't have any rights as a result. But yet we still invite them to come here and at the same time ask them to leave”. Comedian Stephen Colbert was called for congress to testify what he witnessed working in the fields, when he joined a campaign named “Take our jobs.” Undoubtedly the most attention-grabbing part of the video for me was when a congresswoman stated the death of one migrant worker because of heat stroke. He had worked ten hours straight in the sun and not having there the medication or the help needed, caused him his death. This is only one case of countless that have been reported.
