"Bedolla-López’s daughter, Miriam Bedolla, who began working as a farmworker during the COVID-19 pandemic, said that she wants those who work in offices, schools, and government buildings to have more empathy and compassion for people who work in the state’s produce fields.
'It’s an important, dignified role that should actually be treated with an enormous amount of respect and gratitude,” de Loera-Brust said. “I really think that long term what farmworkers need in California isn’t charity, it’s power.'”
