Freezing H-2A Agricultural Worker Wages Until the End of 2025.
This bill freezes the minimum wage rate (Adverse Effect Wage Rate) for H-2A agricultural workers at the level effective on December 31, 2023. This rate will remain in effect until December 31, 2025. For citizens, this means stabilizing labor costs in agriculture, which may affect food prices, but it also keeps temporary workers' wages unchanged for two years.
