"California growers aren't thrilled: They say it won't help them much in a financial crisis."
"Anne Lopez, director of the Center for Farmworker Families, called it 'un-American' to consider cutting wages during a health and economic crisis.
'They’re already impoverished,' said Lopez. 'They live on the edge of survival, they have no guarantees. Right now they’re going through one of the worst periods I’ve ever seen…and to make things worse for them by cutting their pay? It’s obvious our president doesn’t consider these people as human beings.'"
