Ex-farm worker here.

We need to talk about this whole "But a living wage for farm workers would spike the cost of food!" thing.

Not true AT ALL.

Y'all don't understand how fast experienced farm workers are.

The average tomato picker pulls 650lbs per hour.

At $20/hr, that's $0.03/lb for labor.

This is what’s on CNN right now, an hour after Republicans passed a bill stripping healthcare from 17 million Americans, gutting food assistance to the tune of $300 billion, and exploding the deficit by $4 trillion.

The GOP has officially passed the largest wealth transfer in US history.

$975 billion in income tax breaks for the 1%, the largest cut to food stamps in history, a $1 trillion cut to Medicaid, and many more acts of class warfare.

Keep in mind that the cuts to Medicaid don’t go into effect until late 2026 conveniently after the midterm elections. Do not be fooled. Vote these ghouls out. Show up and VOTE in the midterms.
