You can't pick strawberries working remotely. Millions of immigrant farm workers are risking their own health to ensure we have fresh food in our homes. They're essential, yet they have few protections and not enough rights. They deserve better.

"I'm worried about COVID-19. Nothing has changed at work. They are more concerned about efficiency than about our safety. I'm concerned about one of us workers contacting the virus. I don't know how we would be able to feed our families if we were quarantined at home." #MSW52170

[United Farm Workers @UFWupdates]

Join us in taking action:

Make sure COVID-19 funds flowing into the agricultural industry will provide essential protections for farm workers. Unprotected workers leaves our food supply unprotected.

"Farmworkers are particularly vulnerable to illness because of high rates of respiratory disease being an occupational hazard, low rates of health insurance coverage, and often substandard living and working conditions." #MSW52170 #ProtectUndocumentedWorkers

"Undocumented immigrants make up an estimated 6.3 percent of Brooklyn’s population, and many are employed in industries that have been deemed essential, such as delivery workers, food service, and construction subjecting them to increased risk of contracting the virus. "#MSW52170

Brooklyn's undocumented immigrants see little relief amid high exposure rates https://t.co/1QkSKZg1du

""It just makes me feel very sad that we don't have that [government] support," said Eva, who came to the U.S. from Mexico in 2001. "We pay our taxes and do our part." #MSW52170

[Liberty Hill Foundation @LibertyHill]

Local nonprofits like our partners at @kiwa4justice are filling holes left by the federal gov in providing relief for immigrants and undocumented folks. Our partners have ramped up direct service to communities mostly forgotten by mainstream services. https://t.co/7r3MHMyOuT

“Since we have no papers, we have no rights,” said Rosa. The company doesn’t offer them benefits, and she doesn’t have health insurance. “I don’t even want to go out because I cannot afford to get sick,” she said." #MSW52170

WOW this is ridiculous!! #MSW52170 #Immigrantrightsarehumanrights #immigrantrightsarecivilrights

"While there is food distribution available from the city and evictions are currently prohibited during the state’s PAUSE, financial assistance for undocumented immigrants appears to be dependent on donations and philanthropy." #MSW52170 #ProtectUndocumentedWorkers

Despite Their Impact From COVID-19, Undocumented New Yorkers Have Few Options For Financial Help https://t.co/uKJP4udIcC

[Ingrid @msw_igo]

"In 2018, a typical year, undocumented immigrants contributed around $20 billion in federal taxes, plus nearly $12 billion in state and local taxes. But because people need a valid SSN to benefit from federal financial assistance, they’re getting completely left out" #MSW52170

"President Trump appears to have backed down from his vow to temporarily suspend all immigration into the US amid the coronavirus pandemic, opting instead to temporarily halt the issuing of green cards and keep guest worker programs in place." #MSW52170

[Ingrid @msw_igo]

"That is something that the department has been looking at for the past several months, so we are well underway and look forward to presenting to the President those recommendations for additional steps," #MSW52170

[Justice is Served @pleasesaveour]

So this actually has nothing to do with the coronavirus. Thanks for the confirmation
