Maine farms, construction sites reported ICE raids planned

MOFGA is warning Maine farmers, farmworkers, and construction sites to be prepared for ICE enforcement actions that could begin this weekend, with reports of drone surveillance and a focus on farms employing foreign workers such as H-2A workers. Authorities have not confirmed dates, and MOFGA urges vigilance, awareness of workers’ rights, and proper procedures if ICE activity occurs, while monitoring ongoing developments across multiple communities and outlets.
