Dear Congressman Serrano,
I would like to say that there should be something done about the poor working conditions of factory workers in the U.S. The reason why is because back in 1911 on march 25, which was the day of the Triangle Factory Fire, the workers had wasted most of their days working in the factory for very little pay. Now a days, the factory workers still go through the same conditions just like back then. There should be a stop to this. Sweatshops were made to make manufacturing easier and faster for people to get the materials that they needed in a short amount of time. Now that there are many immigrants in the U.S factory owners are taking advantage of them by opening up sweatshops and making them work for very long hours for very little pay. It's cruel!!!!!! I find that wrong because immigrants came to the U.S for a better life for themselves and their families. Just because they opened back up sweatshops for immigrants to work doesn't mean they can take advantage of them by making them work for so little money. That's very rude and mean of those factory owners. People who agree with me would stand up and fight for the rights of immigrants to never work in sweatshops ever again!

The person in charge should change the way people look at others because if a citizen were to look like an immigrant they shouldn't put that person to work in a factory. we must protect and respect each other. After all the United States is a country of immigrants. If no one would want to work in a factory for very little money then they should shut down the sweatshops for good!
Thank You for your Consideration.
Sincerely,
Tiffany
