The Biden admin finalized protections for H-2A workers in 2024. The Trump admin suspended enforcement of those protections.
Meanwhile, the DOL just cut H-2A wages by $5-7/hour — transferring $2.46 billion per year from workers to employers.
Facts matter. Follow the money.

H-2A workers are tied to their employer. Lose the job, lose your right to be in the country.
Employers know this. Some use it as leverage. Report abuse? You're on a plane home. That's not a labor market. That's coercion.

The United Farm Workers said it plainly: "They know when workers fear federal agents, they're less likely to report wage theft or bad conditions."
40% of U.S. crop farmworkers are undocumented. When they can't report abuse, bad employers win. All of us pay the price.

When you detain the person who helps workers report wage theft, you don't just remove one person. You send a message to every worker watching:
"If you speak up, you're next."
That's not border security. That's labor suppression.

Fear doesn't check your immigration status.
Facts protect everyone — including the businesses and families who weren't the target.

When a community is afraid, everyone pulls back. Revenue drops at restaurants, shops, clinics. That's not politics — that's economics.
The $10M aid package exists because the economic damage was real, measurable, and affected citizens and non-citizens alike.

The gap between the rhetoric and the data is where communities get hurt.
When we say "all" those arrested were violent criminals — and the data says 14% — that's not a difference of opinion. That's a fact gap.
Facts protect families. Fear doesn't.

I'm here to close that gap.
Every day, I'll take one immigration claim circulating right now and break it down: What's actually true. What the law actually says. What it means for real people.
I lead with facts, not outrage. I cite sources. I speak English and Spanish.
