Immigration raids on farms spark fear and disrupt U.S. food supply

TL;DR Summary
The escalation of ICE immigration raids across the US is causing fear among migrant workers, especially in industries like agriculture and construction, leading some to stay home despite the need to work, which threatens the economy and food production. Despite the Biden administration's previous efforts to reduce workplace raids, recent increased enforcement under the Trump administration's policies is creating a chilling effect on immigrant communities and industries reliant on their labor.
