These are people that are concerned about economic growth and prosperity in the United States and in border States that are saying that. hey. we have a huge problem here in agriculture. One of our conservative institutes in the State of Texas. Texas A&M University down in College Station. did a study back in 2012 that looked at dairy farms and found that the dairy farms are very heavily dependent upon migrant labor. Threefifths of the milk in this country is dependent upon migrant labor. I think that that speaks in and of itself. Without these employees. the study predicts economic output would decline by $22 billion. and 133.000 workers would lose their jobs.
