Rally to Protect Farm Workers’ Wages
The UFW Foundation, alongside partner organizations, is hosting a rally. We demand justice for farm workers who are being impacted by Trump’s Wage Cuts!
The Trump administration cut farm worker wages by $3-7 dollars per hour by changing the rules. It’s the same old playbook with this administration: take from the hard-working and give to the corporations. If this rule continues, corporations stand to gain $2.4 billion each year.
This rule is yet another handout to powerful agricultural corporations at the direct expense of the workers who harvest, pack and deliver America’s food. These wage cuts will drive down pay, displace U.S. workers and undermine labor standards nationwide. And it won’t stop with farm labor. When wages are pushed down in one industry, the pressure spreads. This will affect everyone!
Which is why we are suing to stop this injustice!
Our hearing is on March 18th, and we want to send a clear message to the administration: STOP THE WAGE CUTS! If you’re tired of greedy corporations getting away with taking billions from hard-working people, we encourage you to show up and speak up!
