Working families paid for America’s addiction to Chinese supply chains. They paid in shuttered factories, lost wages, and empty store shelves during a pandemic that exposed the fragility of the arrangement. President Trump was right to identify and name the problem.

House Agriculture Committee Chairman Glenn Thompson (R-PA) is reportedly planning to roll out an expansion of the H-2A visa program, funneling more foreign workers into United States farm jobs. The move is likely to disincentivize farms from turning to robots and tech as a solution to labor challenges.
