- One is for the federal government to take over the guest worker program wherein their paperwork would shift from CNMI to federal, and second-which he said is a “more permanent solution”-would be to provide status under U.
- Department of Homeland Security “has a lot of flexibility to deal with things as they come up and I think that maybe the best way to end the uncertainty and this transition is to get it started.
