As you know, that costs money that they have gotten used to not having to spend by hiring illegal workers. If they have to pay the aliens the same wages, the local workers may come. I'm not for crippling the farmers by just cutting off all labor. I want them to have no cost advantage in hiring aliens. But if there is a shortage of manpower, we should not prohibit a legal alien worker program.
