UNREAL: Kris Kobach Believes Biden Measure Would Grant Union Benefits to Foreign Farm Workers
Kansas Attorney General Kris Kobach, in addition to 23 attorneys general, is calling on President Joe Biden to scrap a proposed federal rule that he believes will grant collective bargaining rights to foreign farm workers while American farm workers are completely excluded.
Back in September, the Biden regime’s Department of Labor issued a proposed federal rule that would significantly change the H-2A visa program that allows United States farms to import foreign workers to take Americans’ agricultural jobs.
As part of the proposed rule, Kobach and the Republican attorneys general claimed that foreign H-2A visa workers would receive collective bargaining rights that are not available to American farm workers.
In a letter sent to the Department of Labor, Kobach and the attorneys general wrote, “The proposed rule violates the major questions doctrine because Congress did not clearly authorize the Department to grant foreign migrant farmworkers the right to unionize through the rulemaking process.”
“This rule is not just a violation of the law. It is bad policy.” The attorneys general added:
“It would create a situation where temporary foreign migrant workers receive collective bargaining protections that American farmworkers are statutorily denied. This is not only absurd but wrong. The combined effects of high inflation and interest rates have left countless Americans (including farmworkers) behind. Prioritizing the interests of foreign agricultural workers over those of Americans simply adds insult to injury. The Department must change course to avoid this situation.
For the foregoing reasons, the Department should withdraw the proposed rule insofar as it includes collective bargaining protections for H-2A agricultural workers. It should also withdraw the proposed rule insofar as it provides a right of access to unions on employer property.”
“Once again, the Biden administration has placed the interests of foreign nationals over the interests of United States citizens,” Kobach declared in a statement.
Attorneys general from Alabama, Arkansas, Florida, Georgia, Idaho, Indiana, Iowa, Louisiana, Missouri, Mississippi, Montana, Nebraska, New Hampshire, North Dakota, Oklahoma, South Carolina, South Dakota, Tennessee, Texas, Utah, and Virginia all put their signature on the letter.
The US political class in contemporary times is dedicated to serving the interests of foreigners at average Americans’ expense. They’re animated by a Great Replacement spirit and an avaricious desire to keep cheap labor flowing to line their pockets with fat profits.
Such a treasonous ruling class must ultimately be overthrown for its treacherous behavior. Only America First nationalists have the wherewithal to oppose this kind of agenda.
