[Congressional Record (Bound Edition), Volume 156 (2010), Part 10] [Extensions of Remarks] [Page 13712] [From the U.S. Government Publishing Office, www.gpo.gov]WE CAN HELP PROGRAM ______ HON. MIKE QUIGLEY of illinois in the house of representatives Wednesday, July 21, 2010 Mr. QUIGLEY. Madam Speaker, as we talk about the need for job creation it is critical that we remember why America needs work. Jobs are a means to provide for individuals and families, for food and shelter, and for a sense of security and peace of mind. But work is only half the equation--a paycheck is needed to fulfill the other. Which is why I stand in full support of the Department of Labor's ``We Can Help Program.'' This public service campaign strives to educate America's workforce about employer abuses and workers' rights. It will also add 250 investigators to the department's wage and hour division. Efforts like this will go a long way toward recovering at least some of the $19 billion of wages that are never paid to workers across the country every single year. In the midst of a tough economy, it is vital that Congress do everything in its power to make sure every American who wants a job can find a job. But we must remember that there are many already on the clock who need our help, too. ____________________
