@BandonDunesGolf I am a lifelong landscape contractor and nurseryman and would be happy to help your team come up with a plan to straighten the Ghost Tree. Feel free to DM me if you want…I have a plan that would work.
Hmmm. Maybe they should just raise wages….🤔 not saying seasonal visas fix this issue but it’s just funny how ppl constantly say the labor shortage isn’t real. #saveh2b
Please retweet. Save the #H2B program. Our small landscape business is hurting after the #H2B program was halted. Thousands of small businesses that rely on seasonal labor are hurting unnecessarily. Please #releasethevisas@DHSgov@SEA_labor@TomCottonAR@H2Bworkforce

"Any potential loss of H-2B workers will negate that work, disrupt an already abnormal supply chain, jeopardize the state’s $355 million seafood industry, and threaten thousands of direct and indirect jobs,” he wrote."

USCIS proposes a listening session on the #H2B dilemma, after ignoring us for decades. We don't need another workshop, listening session or roundtable. We need simple, reasonable H-2B reform - and we need it now! @DHSgov@USCIS

@SEA_labor@DHSgov@Genna_Douglas @acaldwellwsj When landscapers turn away contracts because they don’t have enough people, despite paying a top wage and great benefits, yes, that’s what you call a labor shortage.
People want year-round employment, not seasonal. Can’t hire people who don’t apply!
@DHSgov@SecMayorkas - surely you would honor a DOL Labor Certification as proof of need. After all, that’s the purpose & intent 4 DOL’s role. Why waste tax dollars 2 do otherwise. #saveh2b@SEA_labor
Congratulations to Mayor Marty Walsh on his confirmation as @USDOL secretary. From his time as mayor, we know he understands the plight of seasonal employers on the Cape and in Maine. You have the opportunity to be a hero to these small businesses mayor. #Releasethevisas! #H2B
More people will cross the border illegally this month than will be allowed in for seasonal businesses under the #H2B program in an entire year. Congress will ignore the border crisis while maintaining that 66,000 is enough for seasonal businesses in all 50 states.🤡🤡🤡 #SaveH2B
I hear all the time, why is there a need for the #H2B program in times of high unemployment? The simple answer is, you cannot force someone to work who does not want to. Employers have gone to exhaustive efforts to recruit Americans affected by COVID-19 but few apply. Tragic!
Does this sound familiar #H2B employers? As the employers said to @MarkSKrikorian and @JessicaV_CIS in our panel discussion last Sep., we are doing everything we can to make Americans aware of our open seasonal jobs but you cant force them to take a job.

@NumbersUSA Pretty simple question for you....
Why didn’t all of the seasonal positions get filled in 2020 with so many people being out of work? I want an answer!
Your false claims that so many people are willing to take these positions is just PLAIN WRONG! #saveH2B
