[quote=Anonymous]Trump administration admits that its immigration policy has completed devastated the farm labor market and is endangering the US food supply:

"Employers in the U.S. agricultural sector are facing a structural, not cyclical, workforce crisis driven by both the lack of an available legal workforce that is relatively mobile and able to adjust to changes in labor demands as well as an ever hastening loss of the mobile illegal alien workforce that had flowed in and out of the United States through a previously porous border.[55]

Nationwide illegal crossings are now at a rate 93% lower than the peak level reached during the prior four years, a rate that has held steady since June of 2025. As discussed below and based on the Department's most recent NAWS data on U.S. crop workers, much of this illegal inflow artificially boosted the supply of labor at relatively lower costs compared to the labor costs associated with a legal workforce. The near total cessation of the inflow of illegal aliens combined with the lack of an available legal workforce, results in significant disruptions to production costs and threatening the stability of domestic food production and prices for U.S consumers."
