                          NAFTA IS NOT WORKING

  (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, the White House says NAFTA is creating 
new and exciting jobs. I did some research on those jobs: zipper 
trimmer, brassiere tender, jelly roller, bosom presser, chicken sexer, 
sanitary napkin specialist, and a pantyhose crotch closer machine 
operator. That is what I call exciting jobs, Mr. Speaker.
  According to the Philadelphia Inquirer, they are so great that 90 
percent of the American workers are literally worried sick about losing 
their jobs and losing their homes. Beam me up. I say NAFTA is working 
for Mexico, Chile, Canada, yes, even Japan and China. Think about it.
  With that I yield back all the balance of those unsexed chickens.
