This book was released on 2011-03 with total page 95 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The majority of the people who make up the United States' seasonal agricultural workforce are nonimmigrant Mexican citizens. Immigration policies such as the Immigration Reform and Control Act (IRCA) and the H-2A agricultural guest worker program were meant to encourage growers to employ legal labor workforces. A study of the laws and practices that eventually resulted in the H-2A program shows how and why the demographics are predominantly Mexican. In addition, such study is revealing as to why the US enacted the H-2A program-including definitional details of the program itself. However, does this program really work? This question has radically different answers. In theory, the program seems to be well designed; but, in practice, it does not function as intended because of its many shortcomings, loopholes, open-ended issues, and poor enforcement. I will analyze and demonstrate how these inadequacies perpetuate illegal immigration and exploitation of both legal and illegal seasonal agricultural farm workers. Lastly, I will offer a composite of recommendations for legislative reform of the H-2A program; as well as provide pertinent, resourceful questions for further research.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Immigration Reform and Control Act of 1986 created the "H-2A" program, under which employers may bring workers into this country on a temporary, nonimmigrant basis to perform seasonal agricultural work when domestic workers are unavailable. This report presents information on the likelihood of a widespread agricultural labor shortage and its impact on the need for nonimmigrant guestworker and the H-2A program's ability to meet the needs of agricultural employers while protecting domestic and foreign agricultural workers, both at present and if a significant number of nonimmigrant guestworkers is needed in the future.
