Shrimpers Face Labor Caps Limiting Crews and Idling Boats
Brownsville reports the federal cap on H2-B temporary workers is leaving shrimp boats idle as crews remain scarce. Doloy Linwood relies on Mexican and Nicaraguan fishermen, with trips lasting 30 to 50 days, and notes no H2-B visas were available this year. Officials say 2005 visas are available but processing can take months and costs can rise with expedited fees.
