Jose Isabel has worked for Huntington Farms for over 50 years as a tractor driver in Soledad, CA. He has been under UFW contract for 40+ years. He is very proud of being a union member and encourages other farm workers to join the UFW and get these benefits too. #WeFeedYou

The goal of the companies who run AIs is to

1. get us all to use AI until the point where

2. we're dependent on AI, then

3. remove all access to AI and

4. grant the privilege of use only to those who pay a monthly fee,

5. which will periodically rise

6. while the service becomes worse and worse.

It'll be enshittification of enshittification.

URGENT: Federal immigration agents stopped a bus of farm workers from Lynn-Ette & Sons Farms on Fri am. They had a list of names, including UFW worker leaders who have been organizing to unionize their workplace. Those workers were detained. Count on me to help! http://ufw.org/nyraid5225 #WeFeedYou
Salvador poses by a tree that he just put a bee net on. The net prevents cross pollination which means we get those tasty seedless Mandarin oranges. Salvador brags, "I'm happy I work under a UFW contract. I get many benefits including 6 paid holidays every year." #WeFeedYou
