Why This Matters

The U.S. Farmworker Protection Act limits the number of temporary farmworker positions to help protect American workers. It addresses concerns that the growing number of temporary workers is harming U.S. farmworkers' wages and job security.

If you are a U.S. farmworker, this bill could help protect your job and wages from competition with temporary workers.
