In the old days, miners would carry birds with them to warn against poison gas. Hopefully, the birds would die before the miners.
Farmworkers are society's canaries. Farmworkers and their children demonstrate the effects of pesticide poisoning before anyone else. - Cesar Chavez

It's simply not true that 75% of farmworkers are not working due to fear of immigration sweeps. Workers are scared, but they can’t afford to stay home. It is peak citrus harvest, and they’re working.

Farm workers are not farmers. The UFW and our members endorsed and campaigned for Biden/Harris.
