Ben Ray Luján: “Senate Agriculture Committee Democrats have been clear that a Farm Bill must meet the needs of both farmers and families…”

New Mexico businesses and families should not have to bear the cost of Trump’s policies that make it more expensive to keep the doors open and buy everyday goods.

That’s why I’m reintroducing the CARE Act to raise the standard and bring our agricultural labor laws in line with other industries to better protect children and improve their working conditions.

Children have their whole futures ahead of them, and our country must do more to protect those working in the agriculture industry.

New Mexico small businesses, like New Mexico Piñon Coffee, are the backbone of our communities and help drive our local economies.
