US EditionBehind the masks: Who are the people rounding up immigrants in California?
LOS ANGELES COUNTY, CALIFORNIA, JUL 17 – Businesses warn of critical labor shortages as plans to deport up to 1.3 million undocumented workers in agriculture and food processing move forward, officials said.
- On July 10, 2025, federal immigration agents and protesters stand-off near the Glass House Farms facility outside Camarillo, amid a summer surge in deportation raids.
- The Trump administration targets roughly 1 to 1.3 million undocumented workers across agriculture, meatpacking, dairy and processing plants, with businesses warning of critical labor shortages.
- USDA data shows 42% of U.S. farm laborers lack legal work authorization, revealing labor gaps and policy challenges.
- This week, a federal judge issued a temporary restraining order against federal agents, citing discriminatory stops, and California legislators pursue measures to ban masks under the `No Secret Police Act`.
- Projections show that these policy shifts risk economic fallout for the food sector, as swift visa expansions and rural labor investments threaten regional and national stability.
