I am not pro-illegal whatsoever - however, there is another perspective from that of famers. I know of many in the California central valley that don't intentionally hire illegals, but end up doing so in many cases... and it is not the farmer's job to go past having a valid ID/SS, real or fake. The factor not being addressed here... NO ONE ELSE will do the jobs harvesting various crops all with crazy rough conditions and long hours out in the sun. There are, of course, varying degrees that each farm looks at employing illegals and they each do their own risk assessment I'm sure... most erring on the side of requiring valid paperwork that clears the farm of any technical wrongdoing... so they aren't paying under the table and such and can show that to the best of their knowledge everyone is legal and paid (more importantly, taxed) on the up and up.
And I also guarantee that regardless of hiring illegals or not most farmers are indeed MAGA!!!
