“The United States has a massive labor shortage!”

“The United States has a major border problem!”

Boy, do I have a solution for you!

1. If we ever get serious about climate change mitigation....

we are going to need a shitload of immigrants to build it. Because, we have to start now......

2. Trace, I'll take any that are degreed and skilled. Nt

3. Immigrants often take harvesting and food service, cleaning, and other service jobs that

Americans don't want.

6. Those jobs are not well paid and often the working conditions

are miserable at best. Improve the pay and the working conditions. THAT will solve the worker shortage.

5. The greatest shortages are in the "unskilled" sector

Not that there really is such a thing as unskilled labor.

4. It might be a great solution in practice

but not in politics. Joe understands the reality.
