The report went on to say that without immediate action to correct the situation that "agricultural employers will be unable to maintain operations and the nation's food supply will be at risk."

Other info in the report also appears to paint Rollins statement as a practical impossibility. The report makes it clear that there is a "lack of qualified and eligible U.S. workers."
