Television personality, comedian, and faux conservative, Stephen Colbert, apparently will testify in US congressional hearings on immigration. He is scheduled to join United Farmworkers Union (UFW) president, Arturo Rodriguez, in the calls for an AgJobs program.
Earlier this summer, Colbert participated in the UFW's "Take Our Jobs" campaign, designed to draw attention to the agricultural industry's dependence on an undocumented immigrant labor force. Colbert spent a day performing farm labor and that experience will be aired today in the Colbert Report.
