Immigration policy is heavy on the minds of producers.
The group Save Family Farming says that recent deportations have made many farm workers nervous. While the group supports upholding the law, it questions the tactic the Trump Administration is using.
According to Save Family Farming Executive Director Ben Tindall, “There’s a right and responsible way to enforce policy, and there’s a reckless way that hinders and damages individuals and their livelihood and security. And unfortunately, this immigration policy, recently over the last month, seems to be following that latter example of just reckless and somewhat of a ‘Ready, Fire, Aim’ process.”
Tindall says that mixing politics and agriculture is tricky but should be non-partisan.
