I’m about to finish up my time in the fields, and wanted everyone to know that we (farmworkers) are paid $7 for two gallons of blueberries. How much do you pay for your blueberries?

Appreciate farmworkers. Appreciate the GRUELING LABOR put in so that you have food on your tables.

We need to invest in our farmers. We need them and I am so grateful for them.

One thing about bachata...I love dancing it.
Bachata's origins are firmly rooted in the Dominican Republic, originating in the 20th century among rural, lower-class campesinos (farmworkers), mainly of African descent.
Bachata almost didn't make it out of the Dominican Republic

Unsung heroes amid Corona pandemic.

Appreciate farmworkers on the field. Appreciate the GRUELING LABOR it takes so that food gets on your tables. Appreciate the risk they are taking of possibly being exposed to and contracting this deadly disease.

Next time you enjoy radishes in your salad, remember the farmworkers like these Oxnard workers, who harvest the food that we eat. #WeFeedYou #Calor #Ovetime4FarmWorkers

Oldest of 10 each, my folks quit elementary (dad) & middle (mom) school in rural México to help make ends meet. So they came to the US to work as farmworkers mostly in rural southwest GA.
My medical school graduation was one small step for a man, one giant leap for fam-kind. 🇲🇽🇺🇸

Farmworkers in Oregon this week used N95 masks and their cell phone flashlights to pick cucumbers in the midst of devastating wildfires. Under what conditions must someone be living to go to work in these horrific and dangerous conditions?! 😡 #WhereIsOSHA

THANK YOU -- to all the workers in the food industry. The grocery workers. Fast food workers. Farmworkers. Agricultural workers. Delivery drivers.

You are not only essential -- you are VALUED.

Thanks to state law, Half Moon Bay commissioners were forced to advance an affordable housing project for senior farmworkers last week.

Immediately after, they assailed #AB2560 , a bill to strengthen those state laws, as 'a disaster' and 'a significant threat' to the community.

The next time you hear Trump and his enablers rail against immigrants as a drain on this country, show them this video of farmworkers risking their health to feed America.

Evening, folks! I’m once again at Half Moon Bay’s hottest venue, the Ted Adcock Community Center, for the third planning committee discussion on a 100% affordable housing project for senior farmworkers.

Hopefully the 3rd time’s the charm charm! 🤞🏻🧵

They deserve the fundamental right to advocate for themselves in the workplace.

Billionaire wine cave owners don’t need defenders in Washington, but the thousands of farmworkers who pick their grapes do.

I’m fighting for the most vulnerable Americans, on and off the debate stage.

Y'all not going to slander Eva Longoria and question her credentials like she hasn't been doing politics and advocating for immigrants, farmworkers, and Latinx folks for the past 15 years.

I guess it's only white men that can transition from celebrity to governor and president.
