Morning Ag Clips reports on new data analysis by the American Immigration Council (AIC) that finds Migrant Farm Workers play a key role in feeding Americans, even as they are increasingly vulnerable to working outdoors in extreme heat.  AIC’s data analysis finds Farm Workers in the U.S. with H-2A status - which covers temporary or seasonal agricultural work (and allows employers to hire foreign nationals when there’s a shortage of domestic Workers) -are increasingly in demand, in order to pick and clean the fruits, vegetables, and nuts supplied in supermarkets across the country and help reduce the U.S.’s reliance on imported food.  Over a five-year period (from 2017 through 2022), the number of H-2A Workers grew nearly 65%.  All this has helped fill critical labor shortages across U.S. farms amidst a persistent lack of Workers.
