‘Mass deportations would disrupt the food chain’: Californians warn of ripple effect of Trump threat - eviltoast

Summary

President-elect Donald Trump’s proposed mass deportation plan could severely impact California’s agriculture, where many of the farm workers are undocumented immigrants.

Experts warn that deporting these workers could disrupt the U.S. food supply chain, drive up prices, and increase reliance on imports.

California’s $24.7 billion agricultural industry heavily depends on immigrant labor for producing key crops like almonds, strawberries, and lettuce.

Farm worker advocates argue Trump’s immigration policies aim to discourage labor organizing by creating a more vulnerable workforce. California leaders, including Governor Gavin Newsom, are taking steps to safeguard immigrant rights amid growing concerns.

    Most folks are extremely boring, I suspect the only reason I find him so acharismatic is cause I am autistic and can barely stand most people let alone a used car salesman. Actually ive met plenty of interesting used car salesmen, one of them actually restored and sold off old military vehicles he either bought from random folks or via auction.
