The labor situation

Watch CNN's The Situation Room sometime this week to see the Florida perspective on the labor situation.

From the newsletter of the Florida Fruit & Vegetable Association:

"FFVA Board Member John Stickles hosted CNN’s Miami correspondent John Zarrella Jan. 14, answering questions about the agriculture industry’s need for a dependable, legal workforce. Stickles, general manager of Dover-based Florida Pacific Farms, discussed the H-2A program, which he uses to obtain workers. The piece is part of a series leading up to the Florida primary elections covering issues of interest to the state. It is scheduled to air on “The Situation Room” program sometime this week."
