Farmers Struggle Amid Immigration Crackdown and ICE Raids

In Pennsylvania and New York, farmers are facing significant challenges in finding labor as immigration policies tighten and ICE raids become more frequent. Many are expressing frustrations, with some farmers, who previously supported Trump, now pleading for help as their crops rot in the fields. Immigrant farm workers in New York have issued warnings about the dangers posed by these raids, leading to widespread fear and serious health issues among the workforce. Advocates argue that the current climate is detrimental not only to the economy but also to the well-being of immigrant communities, exacerbating a crisis where farmers advocate for reform while workers fight for survival.
