• How fear of Trump's immigration blitz is changing life in California farm towns (fresnobee.com) — Firebaugh’s farm-based economy is being squeezed as fear of stepped-up immigration enforcement keeps many migrant workers from shopping, socializing, or even leaving their homes. Local officials warn this anxiety is slashing sales tax revenue, threatening cuts to police, parks, and senior services, while food bank demand has tripled. The story follows Firebaugh farmworkers and growers weighing whether they can afford to stay.
