            HERSHEY FOODS MOVING CANDY PRODUCTION TO MEXICO

  (Mr. TRAFICANT asked and was given permission to address the House 
for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. TRAFICANT. Mr. Speaker, from Mars to the Milky Way, all of 
America has experienced the Kiss, the Hershey Kiss. Now, after the 
State of Pennsylvania gave them tax breaks, now, after workers gave 
them concessions, Hershey is moving its factory that makes the Kiss to 
Mexico; from Mars to Milky Way to Mexico. Tell me, Mr. Speaker, will 
the Hershey Kiss become known throughout America as the Tijuana Kiss?
  Take it from an old Pitt quarterback who is kissed off. We have let 
NAFTA and GATT take our jobs. Where are our constituents going to work? 
In McDonalds and Wal-Marts? My God, when Hershey of America becomes 
Hershey of Mexico, we had better reconsider our economic policies in 
America.
  Beam me up, Mr. Speaker, I yield back the balance of these Kisses.
