Walden Hopes Ag Workforce Answer Can Be Put Together

Oregon Second District Congressman Greg Walden hopes some kind of answer to ensuring area orchards have a legal workforce can be found in spite of the climate surrounding immigration issues.  Walden says he has had conversations with area orchards about the issue, and has told Trump Administration officials the lack of a legal workforce for the agriculture sector is a real problem.  Walden says there is work being done behind the scenes in the House on legislation to address agricultural workforce concerns, and he’s urging the administration to participate in that.  He does add he believes border security must be addressed as well.
