"The Latino Legislative Caucus commends the California Applicants' Attorneys Association for your work representing undocumented workers.  

"These workers do the hardest, most dangerous and repetitive jobs in California.  The cumulative trauma to their bodies condemns too many of them to a life of pain.

"The recent Workers' Compensation Appeals Board decision in favor of an undocumented farm worker reminds us all of the importance of your work.

"We hope that the Temporary Disability Benefits Fernando Romero receives will encourage other immigrant workers to come forward.  We know that you will fight for them when they do."
