Trump's Mass Deportations Of Essential Workers Will Only Create Major Economic Crisis, Feds In Partnership With States Should Issue Regulated Work Visas To Existing Workers And Prevent Nationwide Economic Disaster

The Trump administration has authorized for the U.S. Department of Homeland Security, military, U.S. Marshals Service and U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement Officers to conduct massive raids with the intent to deport essential (undocumented) workers throughout the nation, without any intent to replace those jobs that the traditional American labor force doesn't want to do.

Milwaukee, Wisconsin - The State of Wisconsin is facing an economic crisis today, which other states throughout the nation will also endure and share in the next two years, if a proposed solution to the labor crisis being created isn't implemented to save Wisconsin from the upcoming labor economic crisis, which is expected to disrupt our food chain supplies and etc..

Most Americans, especially Wisconsinites have been blindsided by the usual hate, divisive, racist, and anti-immigrant rhetoric by Donald J. Trump, 78, the current 47th President of the U.S. who has launched a massive mass deportation operation in the nation as promised in his political campaign involving the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS), U.S. Marshals Service, military and the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (USICE). Most of those targeted for mass deportation will be essential (undocumented) workers who do jobs that a majority to U.S. workers don't want to do. Which means, these undocumented essential workers caught in the wave of mass deportation operations are considered collateral arrests. 

Today, the Trump administration and the Wisconsin GOP controlled legislature including Wisconsin Governor Tony Evers (D) haven't proposed any credible option or solution to replace those essential (undocumented) workers that might be caught in the wave of mass deportations.

Who are these essential workers, they are the construction workers, landscaping workers, those that work in the agriculture and food production, dairy farms, taking care of the elderly, caregivers, restaurants workers, critical retail workers and ect..

In Wisconsin, according to Wisconsin State Representative Sylvia Ortiz-Velez (D-Milw), there is a 45,000 workers shortage and the void continues to grow, and with the proposed mass deportation of essential undocumented workers in the next several years, it will definitely lead to an unprecedented Wisconsin labor and food economic crisis.

The option and proposed solution to avoid a Wisconsin labor economic crisis in the next two years, Wisconsin should form a partnership with the immigration feds, U.S. Department of Labor and the Trump administration, so that the state can be allowed to provide and regulate approved visas to the undocumented essential workers that register through businesses, dairy farms, industry, restaurants and ect. to do work or existing work.

A federal/state partnership operated visa workers program in Wisconsin for the essential undocumented workers would be the appropriate option in this case to prevent a Wisconsin labor and food economic crisis.

Other states could also form partnerships with the feds where needed to avoid a nationwide labor and food economic crisis.

The Bracero program sponsored by the U.S. government between 1942 - 1962 imported Mexican farm and railroad workers into the U.S. for labor, but today, more than 13M undocumented labor workers who are considered essential workers are already in the country and can be allowed to stay and continue to do the essential jobs once provided with a visa to work and continue to be contributing taxpayers and stakeholders in Wisconsin and the U.S.A..
