Says farms, children benefit from picking berries

Published: September 18, 2012 

I resent the Department of Labor trying to run our berry growers out of business! As a child growing up in Whatcom County I worked every summer picking berries so that I could buy my school clothes and supplies! Now they will not let children work! A lot of families depend upon the berry industry for their living! You people just sitting behind a desk are working at taking away their income. How much of the berry crops were lost because of you and how many days were the workers out of work? You are the ones that should be paying the large fines! I hope there is some way of voting you all out of your jobs!
