I had particular trouble finding H-2A workers to speak to, but I soon learned it’s not because migrant farmworkers are unwilling to make their voices heard. Retaliatory employers have threatened undocumented farmworkers with immigration enforcement for detailing wage theft and other abuses. In Florida, they marched 45 miles to demand that companies such as Publix, Wendy’s, and Kroger provide farmworkers with better working conditions and wages. The appalling injustices farmworkers experience in the U.S. are not the result of a few bad apples in the agricultural industry. The most important public data we have about abuse in the agricultural industry exists because farmworkers risked it all to speak truth to power.
