Good morning, and welcome to this morning´s hearing. This morning we will be hearing testimony on UNICOR, Federal Prison Industries, Inc. The Federal Prison Industries is a self-supporting government corporation created in 1934. The corporation was created to formalize prison management efforts to provide dependable work for the greatest number of inmates. Inmates have always been required to work in some fashion. Federal inmates were responsible, along with military inmates, for assisting with the construction of Leavenworth Prison many years ago in Kansas. This was considered the traditional "hard labor" - "breaking rocks" to assist in construction projects. Prisoners still take part, on a limited basis, in the construction and landscape preparation of new and modernized facilities. Inmates also still work in prison facilities in janitorial and laundry jobs. In fact, all medically able inmates, subject to security and disciplinary considerations and participation in drug and literacy programs, are available to work.
