Comedy Central's conservative pseudo-pundit Stephen Colbert will deliver "serious" testimony before a House Judiciary subcommittee hearing on agricultural jobs at 9:30 a.m. ET. Colbert recently participated in a United Farm Workers program entitled "Take Our Jobs," which sought to prove that immigrant farm workers perform tough field work that American laborers refuse to do.

The House Ways and Means Committee meets at 9:30 a.m. ET to markup the Currency Reform for Fair Trade Act.
