>> THERE IS AN INTERESTING ARTICLE FROM THE WASHINGTON POST
THAT TELLS THE STORY OF JESUS MEDRANO, A LANDSCAPER FROM
DENVER WHO HAD A PLAN TO HIRE AMERICAN, AND IT ENDED UP WITH
HIM HAVING TO HIRE MORE MEXICAN WORKERS.
LET ME BREAK DOWN THE
DETAILS --
>> THIS IS A COMPANY OWNED BY
MEDRANO --
>>
HE WAS ONCE AN UNDOCUMENTED WORKER, HE USED TO HIRE A LOT OF
UNDOCUMENTED WORKERS TO PAY IT FORWARD BECAUSE IT WAS HOW HE
GOT ON HIS FEET WHEN HE FIRST CAME TO THE STATES.
NOW HE SEES
THAT THE CLIMATE IS CHANGING, WANTED TO HIRE MORE AMERICAN
WORKERS, BUT IT DIDN'T REALLY WORK OUT --
>>AND THIS DROVE HIM TO A DESPERATE POINT --
>>
THEY ENDED UP COMPLETING THEIR SEASON, BUT IT HAD HIM
SCRAMBLING AT THE END.
THIS IS AN INTERESTING STORY, CHECK OUT
THE FULL ARTICLE AT THE WASHINGTON POST.
FIRST LET ME GET A REACTION.
>>I'M NOT SURPRISED.
THIS IS SOMETHING THAT HAPPENS OVER AND
OVER AGAIN, IT HAPPENS WITH FARMERS, AND FARMERS WHO
INCREASE THE WAGES SIGNIFICANTLY, OFFER BENEFITS
INCLUDING HEALTHCARE, RETIREMENT PLANS, THEY DO EVERYTHING THEY
CAN TO ATTRACT AMERICAN WORKERS BECAUSE THEY ARE CONCERNED,
ESPECIALLY UNDER THE TRUMP ADMINISTRATION, THAT THEY WILL
FACE CONSEQUENCES IF THEY HIRE UNDOCUMENTED IMMIGRANTS, AND
THEY CAN'T FIND PEOPLE WILLING TO DO THE JOB.
THAT'S NOT BASED
ON MY OPINION, THAT IS BASED ON FACT, WHAT IS HAPPENING
THROUGHOUT THE COUNTRY WITH VARIOUS INDUSTRIES.
PEOPLE DON'T
BELIEVE IT, BUT IT'S TRUE.
>>AND WHAT HE SAYS IS THAT HE WAS ABLE TO COMPLETE HIS SEASON
AND GET THE WORK DONE BUT HE SAID IT WAS LIKE A LITTLE
BAND-AID ON THE PROBLEM THAT HIS COMPANY IS GOING TO FACE, HE
SENSES THE CLIMATE IS CHANGING, SO HE HAD TO MAKE SOME CHANGES.
IT READS LIKE A PARABLE, LIKE THIS LAW WAS PUT INTO PLACE AND
HE TRIED TO DO THIS, THIS HAPPENED, AND IT'S FRUSTRATING
BECAUSE THIS IS AN HONEST GUY TRYING TO MAKE AN HONEST LIVING
AT HIS LANDSCAPING FIRM.
>>ONE OTHER EXAMPLE, THERE WERE WINERIES IN NAPA THAT PREVIOUSLY
HIRED UNDOCUMENTED IMMIGRANTS TO PICK GRAPES, THEY DECIDED THEY
WOULD TRY TO COMPLY WITH LAWS AND HIRE AMERICAN WORKERS, AND
THEIR GRAPES WOULD ROT BECAUSE THEY COULDN'T FIND AMERICAN
WORKERS.
THIS IS THE PROBLEM, AND EVEN WITH WAGES INCREASING
WELL ABOVE MINIMUM WAGE THEY ARE HAVING A HARD TIME ATTRACTING
THOSE WORKERS AND IT'S SOMETHING TO KEEP IN MIND WHEN WE HAVE
THESE RIDICULOUS BLACK OR WHITE DEBATES ABOUT IMMIGRATION.
