On June 11, 2025, Forbes reported that Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) conducted widespread raids targeting agricultural workers across the United States, affecting farms and food processing plants. These operations led to the arrest of hundreds of undocumented workers, causing significant disruptions in the agricultural sector. The raids have sparked outrage among advocacy groups and labor unions, who argue that they not only violate workers' rights but also threaten the stability of the food supply chain. The article highlights the economic impact, noting that many farms are struggling to maintain operations due to the sudden labor shortage. Additionally, it discusses the broader implications for immigration policy and the ongoing debate over labor and immigration reform in the country.
