ny_quantUS agriculture secretary says Medicaid recipients can replace deported farm workers
Speaking at a news conference with Republican governors on Tuesday, Brooke Rollins said the administration would rely on “automation, also some reform within the current governing structure”, and pointed to “34 million able-bodied adults in our Medicaid program” as potential workers.
According to USDA data, 42% of US farm workers are undocumented immigrants, and just under 70% are foreign-born.
And a March report from the Urban Institute found that most Medicaid recipients are either already working, exempt or face some sort of instability.
