Letter to the editor: Undocumented farmworker arrest is a blow to farmers

Migrant workers in Addison County: Well, congratulations to ICE for arresting a hard-working undocumented Hispanic getting groceries on a break from a job local people won’t do! Putting it to our local farmers again!
I think the real hero is Middlebury Police Chief Tom Hanley, who said years ago he would not bother hard-working undocumented workers and has kept his word. Thank you Chief Hanley for caring about our farmers!
