Cattle groups protest ICE immigration raids
Original: Cattle groups protest ICE raids
US cattle and livestock industry groups are publicly opposing recent ICE immigration enforcement actions, arguing the raids are pulling workers out of ranches and meatprocessing operations and threatening the food supply chain. Producers say agricultural labor was already scarce and warn that mass deportations could drive up costs for ranchers and consumers alike.
Why now: Recent ICE raids are hitting agricultural workplaces, prompting livestock industry groups to break ranks and speak out over labor shortages
