America is experiencing a shortage of workers, the House speaker explained

Farmers in the US state of Florida need migrants to “pick the crops” due to a labor shortage in America, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi claimed on Friday.

Speaking at a press conference, the California Democrat was asked to comment on security at the US’ southern border with Mexico.

“We have a shortage of workers in our country. In Florida, some of the farmers and the growers are saying ‘why are you shipping these immigrants up North? We need them to pick the crops down here.'”

Pelosi admitted that the Biden administration has “a responsibility to secure our border,” adding that “we also have a responsibility to recognize the importance of newcomers to our nation.” She believes this could be remedied by “comprehensive immigration reform.”

She went on to point out that the US is experiencing a workforce shortage. “You see even in Florida some of the farmers and the growers saying, ‘Why are you shipping these immigrants up north?  We need them to pick the crops down here,” Pelosi noted.

“Ephraim also is like a silly dove without heart; they call to Egypt, they go to Assyria” Hosea 7:11
