What about the Bills to stop outsourcing and Sweatshop Labor?
Someone in the senate a few weeks ago had two bills they were working on. One was to stop US companies from using sweatshops abroad, and the other was a bill that would make it so that if you called in to a call center and requested someone from the US they would have to transfer you to a rep. in the US. If Pelosi could get these through the house it would be a great addition to the Employee Free Choice Act.

2. The precious tedious labor and call center jobs...
It would be nice to see effort put towards increasing the number of good jobs available.
