His work has appeared on Newsweek.com, Slate.com, CBSNews.com, MotherJones.com, DailyKos.com and NPR’s web site. Fiore’s political animation has appeared on CNN, Frontline, Bill Moyers Journal, Salon.com and cable and broadcast outlets across the globe.\r\n\r\nBeginning his professional life by drawing traditional political cartoons for newspapers, Fiore’s work appeared in publications ranging from the Washington Post to the Los Angeles Times. In the late 1990s, he began to experiment with animating political cartoons and, after a short stint at the San Jose Mercury News as their staff cartoonist, Fiore devoted all his energies to animation.\r\nGrowing up in California, Fiore also spent a good portion of his life in the backwoods of Idaho. It was this combination that shaped him politically. Mark majored in political science at Colorado College, where, in a perfect send-off for a cartoonist, he received his diploma in 1991 as commencement speaker Dick Cheney smiled approvingly.\r\nMark Fiore was awarded the Pulitzer Prize for political cartooning in 2010, a Robert F. Kennedy Journalism Award in 2004 and has twice received an Online Journalism Award for commentary from the Online News Association (2002, 2008). Fiore has received two awards for his work in new media from the National Cartoonists Society (2001, 2002), and in 2006 received The James Madison Freedom of Information Award from The Society of Professional Journalists.",

Now, people can’t cross. For the people who go home to their country, it’s difficult to return. They go, but then they don’t come back.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://www.cdfa.ca.gov/statistics/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">California grows\u003c/a> over a third of the country’s vegetables and two-thirds of its fruits and nuts, and \u003ca href=\"https://arefiles.ucdavis.edu/uploads/filer_public/0b/1a/0b1a6c3a-b166-4131-b8e9-78ba62754df7/carroll.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">a majority\u003c/a> of the workers who tend to those crops are undocumented immigrants. But increased enforcement, coupled with an aging population of U.S.-based farmworkers, has diminished the supply of California agricultural labor in recent years.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That availability of farm labor was the number one concern growers shared with U.S. Agriculture Secretary Sonny Perdue during his June tour of Northern California farming communities. Purdue’s visit came about a week after President Trump \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11756670/trump-delays-nationwide-ice-raids-including-san-francisco\">delayed plans\u003c/a> for nationwide deportations of undocumented families. But when asked whether the planned crackdown would exacerbate farm labor issues, Perdue told reporters he didn’t think so.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We’re not talking about immigration when we talk about a legal, reliable workforce,” he said. “We’re talking about people who want to come and provide for their families on a temporary basis, on a seasonal basis, in the H-2A program.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Perdue was referring to a decades-old\u003ca href=\"https://www.uscis.gov/working-united-states/temporary-workers/h-2a-temporary-agricultural-workers\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"> temporary agricultural visa program\u003c/a> that enables farmers to hire laborers from other countries. Soon after Perdue’s visit, the Department of Labor announced \u003ca href=\"https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2019/07/26/2019-15307/temporary-agricultural-employment-of-h-2a-nonimmigrants-in-the-united-states\">proposed reforms\u003c/a> that the agency said would “modernize” and “improve” the H-2A process. If approved, the changes would allow employers to stagger workers’ start dates on a single application, modify how workers’ wages are determined, require online applications and allow for e-signatures, among other reforms.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>\u003cstrong>Slow Growth in California \u003c/strong>\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Use of the H-2A visa program has risen steadily in recent years.

In order to make the program work for her, Arvizu made an upfront investment that not all employers can, or are willing to, afford: She bought and renovated a hotel in Merced where workers stay while they pick tomatoes on various farms for several months during the year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On a recent warm evening, Arvizu stood in the parking lot of her hotel, where rows of picnic tables were arranged beneath a large tent. The newest group of workers, having just returned from the day’s harvest in the tomato fields, were preparing to sit down for a dinner of chicken mole and red rice.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Once upon a time, being a farm labor contractor was like a no-brainer. Like, labor was no issue,” Arvizu said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This year, she said, a group of workers from Mexico she had hired through the H-2A program ended up arriving in California a month late because the paperwork was still being processed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I had to tell the growers that I’m still in the process,” she said. “So we just kinda scrambled to grab whoever was willing to come and help us.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11781819\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/2019/10/23/can-a-costly-guest-worker-program-meet-californias-need-for-farm-labor/img_5630-1/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-11781819\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-11781819 size-full\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/10/IMG_5630-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1280\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/10/IMG_5630-1.jpg 1920w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/10/IMG_5630-1-160x107.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/10/IMG_5630-1-800x533.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/10/IMG_5630-1-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/10/IMG_5630-1-1200x800.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003c/a>\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">A new group of workers, hired by Ileana Arvizu, sit down for a dinner of chicken mole and red rice after a day of harvesting tomatoes. \u003ccite>(Alex Hall/KQED)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003ch3>\u003cstrong>Farmworkers With Deep Roots\u003c/strong>\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>California’s large population of undocumented farmworkers with deep roots in the state is another reason the H-2A program has been slow to catch on here.[aside label=\"related stories\" tag=\"farmworkers\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The mayors of communities that I’ve talked to on an annual basis in this valley want to take care of the people of their communities,” said Manuel Cunha Jr., president of the Nisei Farmers League in Fresno.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Why bring in new people and bust the people that are in your community?

But plaintiff attorneys argue that if the policy takes effect, detainees would not have a fair shot at freedom because ICE is biased toward detaining people.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In criminal cases, defendants generally have the right to ask a judge to set them free while their cases are decided.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In July, a federal judge in Seattle issued a nationwide halt to Barr’s order.

Other states, such as Colorado, saw their AEWR increase by as much as 23%. Farmer advocates say growers and employers cannot sustain the pace of pay growth, which rarely drops. Between 2009 and 2014, the AEWR increased from $10.16 to just over $11, data from the Department of Labor shows. Today, it stands at just under $14 in California. Other states, including Washington, pay just over $15 an hour.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This will continue to erode domestic farmers’ profitability while continuing to press upward domestic workers’ wages unsustainably,” said President and CEO of the National Council of Agricultural Employers, Michael Marsh. “You’ll see farmers expanding fruit and vegetable production in Canada and Mexico, where the wage rates are significantly lower than they have to pay in the U.S. About half the fresh fruit in the U.S. is produced in a foreign country, and about a third of the vegetables.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And others say the wage rate is not just unsustainable, but unfairly calculated in the first place, and badly in need of a fix.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We believe the AEWR is skewed, because that is based on regions of the United States,” said Sara Neagu-Reed, associate director of Federal Policy for the California Farm Bureau. “So you’re comparing a combine driver in Idaho to a blueberry picker in Salinas Valley. That’s why we think it’s flawed, and it’s better to go with the proposed rule, so you’re looking at calculations by job categories, and individuals who are all in the table grape or berry-picking category.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside tag=\"farmworkers\" label=\"Related Content\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the “Salad Bowl of the World,” Monterey County Farm Bureau Executive Director Norm Groot argued that revamping the AEWR calculation model, resulting in a lower hourly wage for H-2A workers, would help farmers significantly.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“You have temporary workers who are being paid more and domestic workers who technically could be paid less, but they have to be paid the same anyway, and so it has this wage inflation proponent in it,” Groot said. “What we’re trying to do is get that to tied not only to the inflation index, but also to the economy. If the economy goes down, then the adverse wage rate also goes down. Currently, it doesn’t get adjusted down, so you have an economy that’s slumping and you’re still paying those high wages.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>However, the proposed H-2A guidelines also fail to take into account year-round agriculture, as takes place in the Salinas Valley, Groot added. He said that problem could be solved by simply increasing the number of green cards with an agriculture or horticultural preference, or adding an at-will provision so H-2A workers are tied to an area, and not one specific grower. That would help growers and farmworkers, Groot said, as growers don’t always have fields that need picking and H-2A workers only get paid for the days they work.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If wages lower, it could put added pressure on an already struggling population.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Salinas tops the list of places in the U.S. with the highest concentration of farmworkers. According to the Department of Labor, 31,700 people worked as farmworkers in Salinas in 2018. In the Salinas and Pajaro valleys combined, just over 4,000 farmworkers were H-2A workers in 2017. The mean wage drawn by a farmworker in Salinas in 2018 was $28,940, statistics from the Department of Labor showed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11780790\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/10/RS8926_Drought_JoshC-4394-800x450.jpg\" alt=\"Farm fields outside of Los Banos, California.\" width=\"800\" height=\"450\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-11780790\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Farm fields outside of Los Banos, California. \u003ccite>(Josh Cassidy/KQED)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Salinas is also one of the most expensive places in the U.S. to live, with rent prices sitting at about double the national average.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The vast majority of farmworkers are Latino, and a new report from Oakland’s Insight Center for Community Development found 52% of Latino households have trouble paying for basic expenses, such as housing, food or electricity.

Farm labor contractors notoriously pay way less versus farmworkers who are direct hires from the company.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Pay for domestic farmworkers is tied legally to H-2A pay; the hourly wage H-2A workers receive must be higher than the wages domestic workers receive. Some growers compensate domestic workers at the same rate as H-2A workers, or pay domestic workers a piece rate on top of a lower hourly wage that can help them earn higher wages overall.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[pullquote size=\"medium\", citation=\"Marichel Mejia, national field coordinator for the United Farm Workers Foundation\"]'Farmworkers are hardworking people who do some of the most difficult jobs in this country and they bring food to all of our tables.

Growers may hire farm labor contractors, as opposed to hiring workers, directly in order to reduce their paperwork, cut down on worker recruitment efforts, reduce legal liability, avoid unionization or labor management disputes and cut their own costs, a 2010 report out of the California Institute for Rural Studies shows.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>However, the same report shows abuses have been reported against farm labor contractors since the earliest days of the system in 1928. Those abuses continue to this day as wage and labor violations as well as retaliatory actions, like firing workers for complaining about being sprayed with pesticides. The administration’s proposal also would require employers to pay less for transportation of the H-2A farmworkers from their native country to their place of work as well as decrease annual housing inspections of H-2A housing, carried out by federal inspectors, to once every two years. Employers would also have the option to self-certify that housing meets H-2A standards instead of undergoing a government inspection.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This in particular rang alarm bells at the UFW, Mejia said. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Farmworkers are hardworking people who do some of the most difficult jobs in this country and they bring food to all of our tables,” said Mejia. “It’s hard, difficult work that’s dignified, so they should not have their wages going down.

The program offers extra instruction — after school, on weekends and during breaks — to kids who might otherwise fall behind academically as their families move around with the harvest.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We learn a lot about science and it helps us get ready for [the] school year,” said fifth grader Alexys Chaves, who added that his favorite part was building robots.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But over the past decade, the program has seen a significant drop in enrollment across the state and nationally. Those numbers are reflected in the area centered around Stockton, where the program is run by Manuel Nuñez, a regional director of migrant education.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“When I first started with this region back in ‘01, we had about 21,000,” Nuñez said. “Currently we’re at about 2,200.

It’s getting tougher to qualify for the program and there are fewer migrant workers as people take jobs in different fields. Then there’s the political atmosphere: Nuñez said that under the Trump administration, many migrant families are reluctant to sign up, even if their children could benefit.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Nuñez said they don’t ask about immigration status, but he and others say that fear persists in the community.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Many times when we have staff go out and they’re talking to families and interviewing them to qualify for the program, they’re hesitant to give us information,” Nuñez said. “Especially because they know we’re a federal program.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Part of what we’re trying to do is empower those parents to support their students in their education,” Nuñez added. “So when we don’t have those parents coming in, they’re losing out on that part. So it’s impacting their students, too.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Veronica Aguilar, director of the English Learner Support Division at the California Department of Education, said migrant education programs across the state are seeing a similar decline in enrollment. She is concerned the program’s budget could take a hit next year, which could hurt the 82,000 students enrolled statewide.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We do anticipate next year seeing some fluctuation only because there are rules that are changing in terms of how the allocation to the states are given,” Aguilar said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Nuñez said he knows first hand how hard migrant labor can be.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I did it from when I was 7 years old until 18,” he said. “When the other kids were happy about summer, my brothers and I were like, ‘Oh, summer.’ ”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While Nuñez and his brothers spent the hot summer months working in the fields to help their family, they all participated in the migrant education program during the school year. He credits the program with helping him see college as an option and to imagine a different future.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It’s the same message Nuñez is trying to spread today.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We’re trying to show the kids, too, that there’s something out there for them besides what life they know,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For now, the message is getting through to seventh grader Jennifer Sandoval.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We get to do a lot of fun things,” she said. “I think we’re going to start building robots. And last year I came and it was a lot of fun because you get to do competitions.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sandoval wants to be a doctor when she grows up. It’s kids like her that keep Nuñez motivated, although he acknowledges the program might look different in the future.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n",

"content": "\u003cp>Lawyers for San Francisco and Santa Clara counties, the state of California and other plaintiffs tried to persuade a federal judge in Oakland Wednesday to block a Trump administration rule that would deny green cards to immigrants who use public benefits such as Medi-Cal, food stamps and housing vouchers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The plaintiffs — who also include immigrant service providers, the states of Oregon, Maine and Pennsylvania, and the District of Columbia — say the \"public charge\" rule would cause them irreparable harm, forcing local governments to spend more to protect public health and increasing the likelihood of communicable disease outbreaks because fearful immigrants stop seeking medical care.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>U.S. District Judge Phyllis Hamilton signaled that she would decide on whether to block the rule before Oct. 15, when it is set to go into effect.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But she chided the plaintiffs for failing to make a strong case — in legal briefs or in court — that a nationwide injunction is needed.

"content": "\u003cp>Federal judges on Tuesday challenged government lawyers over the legality of a Trump administration rule that denies asylum to people who don't come through a designated port of entry, even though the law specifically allows them to apply — regardless of where they enter the U.S.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside tag='immigration' label='Related Coverage']The exchange was part of a hearing before the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals on two cases challenging Trump administration policies restricting access to asylum protections for tens of thousands of migrants at the U.S.-Mexico border. The hearing in San Francisco addressed both the “port of entry” rule and another policy that forces most non-Mexicans who seek asylum at the border to wait in Mexico while their cases are heard in U.S. immigration court.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The administration has sought to deter the growing number of families and others seeking safe haven in the United States, many of whom say they are fleeing violence in Central America from which their government fails to protect them. The policies are part of a larger effort by the administration to restrict immigration overall.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the first case, Justice Department attorney Scott Stewart asked the three-judge panel to overturn a lower court ruling last December that blocked the “port of entry” rule. The government has said the restriction is “an important rule designed to address a crisis at our southern border that is overwhelming our asylum system.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In court, Stewart said the rule is valid because it still allows people who don’t come through a port of entry to apply for asylum — even if none of them will be granted it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This ability to apply for asylum, your honor, doesn’t guarantee any substantive outcome,” Stewart told the judges. “This authority to grant asylum is imbued with discretion.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Judge Richard Paez cut him off.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It seems kind of odd that Congress has pretty specifically set out when an alien can apply — whether or not at a designated port of entry — and then the agency comes along and promulgates a regulation that basically just wipes that out. How is that consistent with the text of the statute?” asked Paez, who was appointed to the bench by President Bill Clinton.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Representing a group of immigrant legal service organizations challenging the “port of entry” rule, ACLU attorney Lee Gelernt argued that the asylum restriction was in blatant violation with the language of the law.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We do not think it would have made sense for Congress to say — and twice now, 1980 and 1996 — you may apply regardless,” said Gelernt. “Congress looked at this issue, understood how dangerous it was to eliminate asylum for people who couldn't make it to a port of entry, and put that language in.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The second case before the 9th Circuit Tuesday dealt with the Trump administration’s Migration Protection Protocols, known as the “Remain in Mexico” policy. It requires many non-Mexicans who seek asylum at the border to wait in Mexico for their cases to be heard in U.S. immigration court.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In April, U.S. District Judge Richard Seeborg in San Francisco blocked the policy. But the following month, the 9th Circuit allowed it to take effect while the government appeals Seeborg’s preliminary injunction. As of late August, 38,000 people had been ordered to remain in Mexico while their asylum cases proceed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside tag='asylum-seekers' label='More Coverage']ACLU attorney Judy Rabinovitz argued that the forced return to Mexico was illegal and asked the court to allow the lower court’s injunction to block it. In particular, she said it was urgent to stop the U.S. from returning asylum-seekers to a country where they could face danger — a requirement of international law known by the French term “non-refoulement.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The greatest suffering is with respect to those individuals who are being returned to persecution or torture despite the non-refoulement obligation,” said Rabinovitz. “Our concern is just to ensure that we get relief for those people.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Judge William Fletcher, another Clinton appointee, challenged Department of Justice attorney Stewart, suggesting that the interview used to place migrants into the Remain in Mexico program is flawed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“You don’t even ask if they have any kind of fear,” said Fletcher. “You're not even asking them the key question with respect to refoulement, that is to say, ‘Are you afraid?’ ”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Stewart replied that the government doesn’t need to ask because asylum-seekers can volunteer that they fear being sent back to Mexico.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Douglas Oviedo, an evangelical pastor from Honduras, is one of the plaintiffs in the Remain in Mexico case. He is one of a few people who have won asylum through that program.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Speaking after the hearing, Oviedo said he spent 11 months in a Tijuana migrant shelter, unable to work. Central American migrants face discrimination in Mexico but, even worse, they are preyed upon by local gangs and drug cartels and also by the Mexican police. Women are raped and young people are extorted, he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Women and children are hiding in the shelters,” he said. “Migrants don’t leave because they’re afraid to go out in the streets.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>KQED's Farida Jhabvala Romero contributed to this report.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\n",
