Just think what we’re saving in government money not going toward their large families.

... PEW Research Center reports more Mexicans are leaving the U.S. than coming here.

Hallelujah! At last.

Boo Freakin' hoo.

We have specific immigration allowances for migrant farm labor. Perhaps if California cracked down on Illegal Aliens collecting welfare there would be more people available to pick the crops.

I'm sure California minimum wage laws aren't helping either.

They should allow more work visas with the stipulation that if they overstay they will be permanently banned.

No mention of illegal or even "undocumented". Hmmmm. They can't hide it behind a euphemistic lie, so they'll just ignore the issue.

$13mil loss is exaggerated.

In two counties that much falls off the trucks each year.

I’ve lived in this valley for decades and this is the farmers and their distributors bitching about having to pay the Mexicans more than the normal pittance.

This is a non issue.

Want to pay $10 for a head of lettuce?

We already do through our taxes.

I call BS. Why can’t the farmworkers get green cards to work here like they did before. What’s the matter, they don’t want to make money anymore? They can’t get green cards anymore? I didn’t realize that had changed.

This is such an absolute LIE!

Illegal aliens can get welfare and other govt free stuff right away.

And, they KNOW it.

If Growers can't get labor, they are paying too little to compete with the welfare office.

That's that.

Jobs no one else will do? Really? A very nice black woman I know grew up as a sharecroppers daughter. All her siblings were out in the fields working...not doing drugs and shooting up cities.

Her boys are smart hardworking kids, one worked at McDonalds, developed some skill and knowledge about the restaurant biz and now has a better job at a high end place with an eye to opening his own some day.

Hard working ambitious young people might learn a lot about farming and marketing farm products if they’d get out in the fields and start at the bottom. Literally. Every go-nowhere job looks like a stepping stone to an ambitious kid.
