4 Immigrant crisis in U.S. leads to shortage of migrant farm-workers A. Carr states that Americans aren t out there wiling to do these jobs. Do you agree with his statement? Why or why not? B.

Is a shortage of migrant farm-workers a big enough concern to have politicians finally take action on the immigration issue? Explain your thoughts. E. What concerns do farmers have about this migrant worker shortage? Are those concerns justified? Explain. F. The article states that opinions on immigration are changing in areas that used to generally be opposed to immigration. Do you agree with this statement? Explain, and try to use examples of people in our corner of Tennessee. As a group: What was the most important or interesting thing you learned from this article?
