Food Shortages Are Coming

Many Americans are unaware of how much of their food comes from California. They think California is just two or three big cities, and ignore the fact that it is a largely agricultural state, supplying nearly 70% of the nation's fruits and vegetables. If the Republican regime succeeds in its goal of destroying California's agriculture, the entire country will experience shortages and higher prices. In addition to providing your fruit and veggies, California produces about 20% of U.S. dairy products and about 80% of the country's fresh cut flowers. If the workers are driven off, tons of valuable food will sit in the fields and rot. Imported fruit, already expensive, will experience extreme price increases driven by tariffs.
