In this blog, we\u2019re highlighting the work of L\u00edderes Campesinas, an organization that focuses on strengthening farmworker advocacy and well-being, which is a also priority of CalCAN’s efforts to create a resilient, just and healthy agricultural system.<\/span><\/p>\n

L\u00edderes Campesinas aims to strengthen the leadership of farmworker women and youth so that they can be agents of economic, social and political change and ensure their human rights. For over 35 years, L\u00edderes Campesinas has used outreach, organizing, and activism to improve the lives of farmworker communities. Their work builds upon the legacies of <\/span>the UFW, Cesar Chavez, Dolores Huerta, Larry Itliong, and many more. <\/span>In recent years, L\u00edderes Campesinas has advocated for Covid relief for farmworkers, established farmworker resource centers, and expanded culturally relevant rural healthcare through mobile clinics and health fairs. The organization has addressed food insecurity in agricultural communities and made recommendations for a Farm Bill more inclusive of farmworkers. L\u00edderes Campesinas has also worked to ban dangerous pesticides like Chlorpyrifos and help establish a pilot pesticide alert system as well as smoke alert systems. Irene Barraicua, the Director of Policy and Communications says, \u201cthere is much more to be done.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Empowering Farmworker Voices in the Capitol<\/b><\/h2>\n

Earlier this year, L\u00edderes Campesinas convened farmworkers from all over California to meet with state legislators, articulate policy priorities, and share experiences and strategies across regions. Female farmworkers, many of whom are mothers, spent two days in workshops discussing labor rights, health, environmental justice, and gender violence followed by a dance with live music and a day of meetings with policymakers. <\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cEveryone has heard of the Coachella music festival but no one sees us working out in the fields of the valley,\u201d one participant said. \u201cToday we are not invisible.\u201d<\/b><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The farmworkers\u2019 stories resonated with many legislative staff. Alexis Castro is the Legislative Director for <\/span>Senator Steve Padilla<\/span><\/a>, who represents the Imperial and Coachella Valleys and parts of San Diego County. \u201cMy mother was a farmworker,\u201d Castro said in Spanish at a meeting with participants, \u201cI understand how hard it is. Thank you for coming here and sharing your experiences \u2013 they need to be heard at the Capitol.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Addressing the Multifaceted Challenges Faced by Farmworkers<\/b><\/h2>\n

Participants articulated the complex challenges and tradeoffs that farmworkers face every day while navigating undocumented status, low wages, lack of transportation, language barriers, gender-based violence, lack of access to culturally appropriate health care and healthy food, increasingly dangerous working conditions due to climate change, childcare and housing insecurity. \u201cWhat babysitter wants to start at 3 or 4 am when I leave for work?\u201d Many women underlined the need for safe, affordable housing. \u201cOften we are multiple families sharing one house,\u201d one mother shared. A 2018 study found that 67 percent of farmworker households experienced severe overcrowding in the Salinas and Pajaro Valley Region and that 5,300 permanent and affordable farmworker housing units are needed. Developing new farmworker housing and improving and weatherizing existing housing improves air quality and mitigates effects of climate threats like flooding, wildfire smoke, and extreme heat.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Confronting Climate Change: Heat, Smoke, and Economic Security<\/b><\/h2>\n

Women also shared that extreme heat and smoke from wildfires make harvests particularly dangerous and exhausting, but few other employment opportunities exist \u2013 especially for undocumented workers. Farmworkers are 20-35 times more likely to die of heat-related illnesses compared to other workers. The vast majority of farmworkers who are undocumented are not eligible for unemployment pay when they are unable to work because of illness or extreme weather events like floods or wildfires. L\u00edderes Campesinas supports SB 1105, authored by Senator Padilla, which would allow agricultural workers to use sick days for climate-related events like extreme heat. Disaster pay is another critical means of compensating workers through climate catastrophe.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Participants reiterated that despite working full time and picking up extra shifts, economic mobility is impossible without improved wages. \u201cFarmworkers’ ability to work relies on good weather and is most often seasonal, already leaving them without work for a few months,\u201d says Barraicua. \u201cThe detrimental effects of climate change impact their ability to work full seasons and full shifts which leads to reduced work hours and decreased wages for some of the lowest paid laborers.\u201d Developing workforce training options that support farmworkers in building farm management skills that support climate resilience (e.g. irrigation management, sustainable pest management, and pest monitoring) could be one way to protect farmworkers from climate harms, and result in improved pay.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Barraicua says, \u201cWe are also excited to collaborate with agricultural industry leaders, advocates, agency representatives and wine producers to improve the work of vineyard workers via a <\/span>label and certification<\/span><\/a> we are developing.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Policy Priorities for Farmworker Well-being and Climate Resilience<\/b><\/h2>\n

L\u00edderes Campesinas\u2019 current policy priorities address the diverse and intersectional challenges facing farmworkers. This year <\/span>L\u00edderers Campesinas has advocated for unemployment benefits for excluded workers (SB 227 Safety Net For All), VOCA funds for women impacted by violence, prevention of family separation and childhood education (AB 2240), the establishment of a permanent California Worker Outreach Program (SB 1030) and farmworker investments in California’s proposed climate bond.<\/span><\/p>\n

Recently <\/span>$635 million in investments for farmworker health and well-being<\/span><\/a> were included in California\u2019s climate bond. Known as Proposition 4 on November\u2019s ballot, the measure will include funds for infrastructure to improve water quality\/provide clean, safe, and reliable drinking water, farmworker housing under the Low-Income Weatherization Program, and the Farmworker Vanpool Program. It will be up to voters in November to pass Proposition 4 to ensure these programs receive funding.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

L\u00edderes Campesinas also recently released a report titled <\/span>\u201cHealing Land, Collective Power\u201d<\/span><\/a> in <\/span>collaboration with CAUSE and Micop. The research includes the results of surveys and focus groups with farmworkers, interviews with expert practitioners in the field, a review of academic research, and mapping of farmland ownership in Ventura County. It concludes with recommendations for policy change to facilitate innovations in the agricultural sector that would advance the economic security and environmental health of farmworker communities in the region.<\/span><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
