This is such a dumb talking point on so many levels.Democrats don't want to help people, they want slaves, like they used to have.
By keeping the people as illegals instead of as legals you can pay them below minimum wage and no benefits. They can't complain.
42% of farm workers are undocumented—are states like Iowa, Nebraska, Indiana, Texas, and North Carolina “Dem states”? Even my state, WI, may have a Dem Governor but we’re pretty divided politically and Trump won the state in 2 of the 3 elections he ran in.
Secondly, it’s not terribly hard to rectify this wage problem—just pass a law. I can’t imagine Dems will fight it (assuming it has no right wing bullshit attached to it), we consistently support raising wages for workers. Hell, we’ve been trying to get the federal minimum wage raised for years, and who blocks that every time? Republicans.
Thirdly, it’s laughable to act like you care about their conditions when your boy is sending them to foreign gulags without due process from which they have no viable path out. Give me a break with this shit.
