A new survey by Morning Consult and the nonprofit Physicians Committee finds that 65% of adults support establishing a special program that would allow migrant farmworkers to remain in the U.S. to help with food production. This is especially relevant at this time of harvest and feasting, since many foods commonly served during the holidays, such as sweet potatoes, pecans, pumpkins, and cranberries, require many workers, as well as machinery, to grow and harvest. About half of farmers say they don’t have the labor they need, according to the Kansas Reflector.
