US Agriculture Secretary Rules Out Amnesty for Migrant Farmworkers

U.S. Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins announced there will be no amnesty for illegal immigrant farmworkers, emphasizing a goal of a 100% American workforce and considering automation and reform. The administration plans to curb farmland purchases by foreign entities, including Chinese companies, and is reviewing options to address land already owned by foreign firms. The farm sector warns that mass deportations could disrupt the food supply, while the government explores new policies and agencies to support domestic labor and regulate foreign investment in U.S. farmland.
