Equity for Massachusetts Farmworkers

The Fairness for Farmworkers Act would allow farmworkers to earn the state minimum wage, and overtime pay, both of which they are currently exempt from. Farmworkers deserve to be dignified for their essential work to our state.

"I have worked as a farmworker for many years in my country, also here. Working on the farm is a lot of work. We harvest the healthiest food - fruits and vegetables that go to the stores so people can eat. We are an important source for the state and this law benefits us so we can earn more money and have a day of rest with our families. I would like for legislators to help us in that regard, and give us a voice because we don't have a voice in this country."
