The wage issue in agriculture stems from systemic failures, not worker status. When ICE raids removed undocumented laborers in 2025, farms offered $25/hour to U.S. citizens—yet positions remained unfilled. This proves native-born workers reject these jobs regardless of pay.

The Farm Workforce Modernization Act directly addresses wage exploitation by mandating E-Verify compliance and creating certified worker pathways with labor protections. Without this workforce, grocery prices would skyrocket and supply chains collapse—real consequences of enforcement-only approaches.

Real reform means holding employers accountable through verification systems while ensuring labor stability. The alternative is economic sabotage disguised as protectionism.
