Ten undocumented immigrants were rounded up Tuesday in what immigrant advocates say is the first major farm labor camp raid in Michigan since President Trump took office. The ten workers were arrested by Immigration and Customs Enforcment officials Tuesday night at their labor camp near Hart, roughly 40 miles north of Muskegon. The nine male farm workers are currently in ICE custody in Youngstown, Ohio. The lone female farm worker arrested in is Calhoun County, Michigan. It's unclear whether the workers will be deported. Susan Reed, managing attorney with the Michigan Immigrant Rights Center, says the farm workers contribute a great deal to Michigan. “The farm worker community gives so much socially, culturally and economically to our West Michigan communities that to see ten people taken from their homes late at night after working a hard blueberry system is just very painful,” Reed said. President Trump promised to crack down on undocumented immigration throughout his campaign and in his inauguration speech. Reed says it is hard to remain positive after a raid happens. “It's very difficult to be reassuring when you're seeing these very disruptive, to farm worker life, practices coming from our government,” Reed said.

What sense it makes to remove farm workers in the middle of the harvest. Combine it with the flooding and we can have famine with a side of pestilence if they play their cards right.

It's ok, millions of legal US citizens are just waiting for a chance to get their farm labourer jobs back.
For legal reasons, we are not threatening to destroy U.S. government property with our glorious medieval siege engine. But if we wanted to, we could. But we won’t. But we could.

They can move 16 tons of produce and the company store will have "Trump" over the door.

Price happens where supply meets demand. Learn to appreciate it. It applies to labor too!

You mean like collude to not enforce immigration law so businesses can get away with felonious labor practices? Yeah, that's why Trump was elected. To stop that.

Are liberals more concerned with making sure everyone makes at least $15 an hour or that illegal immigrants can keep making $5 an hour so they can have cheap produce. Which one of those two can they best do without?
