But who will pick my lettuce?

Your lettuce will be picked thanks to a restored Bracero program that worked for many years, but was ended by Jerry Brown during his first term in office (circa 1975) because he decided American people wanted those jobs (they didn’t) and so the illegal entry into the US began in earnest, and those illegals lost the protections of state and federal law, and the chance to become citizens if they desired, which many of the braceros did not.

I hope the next crop of lettuce pickers wash after defalcating.
