According to a lead editorial in a recent issue of the Chicago Sun Times, “every Illinois town and county would be wise to decide and let residents know just how far their local cops will go to carry out President Donald Trump’s plan to more aggressively deport unauthorized immigrants.” The editorial also cites AFBF’s farm labor study: “According to the American Farm Bureau, 50 to 70 percent of farm laborers are undocumented immigrants. Migrants in the past have declined to work in states that adopted tough immigration policies. That left fruits and vegetables worth hundreds of millions rotting in farm fields.”
