A conservative Republican farmer from Idaho is making an unlikely appeal to President Donald Trump: "Do the right thing." His call comes as his family farm struggles to survive amid labor shortages he blames on Trump-era immigration policies. ABC News reported Wednesday that Shay Myers, general manager of Owyhee Produce, a third-generation farm in Parma, Idaho, is speaking out against the aggressive deportation tactics that have intensified under the Trump administration.
A report submitted earlier this month warned that "the near total cessation of the inflow of illegal aliens combined with the lack of an available legal workforce, results in significant disruptions to production costs and [threatens] the stability of domestic food production and prices for U.S consumers."
