🚨 H.R. 9535: WHO SIGNED ON TO WAIVERS FOR ILLEGAL FARMWORKERS? The "Securing Agriculture's Workforce Act" is sold as a fix for the farm labor shortage. Read the fine print. ━━━━━━━━━━ ❌ WHAT MAKES IT BAD
• It waives immigration violations so farmworkers here illegally can get H-2A visas. People who broke the law get rewarded with work visas.
• It makes H-2A year-round, with contracts up to 350 days. That's no longer seasonal help. It's a permanent foreign workforce.
• It expands H-2A into livestock, aquaculture, forestry and some meat and poultry processing.
• It locks the H-2A wage formula into law, so Congress gives up control.
• It does nothing to put able-bodied Americans to work first. ━━━━━━━━━━ ✍️ SPONSOR

• Able-bodied adults on food stamps already must accept a suitable job or lose benefits. Enforce it.
• Medicaid's 80-hour monthly work requirement starts January 1. Count farm work toward it.
• Farms already post every H-2A job with state job agencies. Send work-required welfare recipients to those jobs first.
• Require E-Verify so nobody hires illegally.
• Fix H-2A paperwork so legal guest workers fill what's left, applying from home and coming in the right way.
• No waivers for breaking the law. ━━━━━━━━━━ ☎️ Is your Congressman on this list? Call 202-224-3121 and ask why. #Firstballot2028
