It's not just some contractor in Colorado. Farmers up and down the West Coast are have to let their fruit rot in the fields for lack of pickers. About 4% less illegals to do the stoop labor native Americans won't do. The farmers have advertised for local, nonlegal help, and get little or no response. The teenagers and college students who USED TO do this work are not doing it anymore. Even the idea of allowing the public to come and pick your own strawberries, peaches, etc., is not a viable solution anymore due to lawsuits. "I twisted my back on that farmers furrow" nonsense.

The Brasero program worked from WWII thru the late 60's. Temp. work permit. What'sa matter with that?

That wouldn't let them be here permanently and bring their entire extended families.

You see, Dane wants 40 million more Democrats.
