flag UFW and 18 farmworkers sue Trump admin over H-2A rule cutting guest worker wages and housing costs, calling it illegal and harmful.

flag The United Farm Workers and 18 farmworkers sued the Trump administration over a new H-2A visa rule that reduces minimum wages for guest workers by $5 to $7 per hour and allows up to $2.49 in housing deductions, cutting pay to as low as $10.44 hourly. flag The rule, implemented without required public comment, is projected to transfer $2.46 billion annually from workers to employers and threatens to lower wages for U.S. farmworkers on the same job sites. flag Filed in California’s Eastern District Court, the lawsuit argues the change undermines fair pay, displaces American workers, and violates federal law, echoing a 2020 rule previously blocked.
