As we move toward another busy summer season, the demand for reliable, legal seasonal labor has never been more critical. Across agriculture, landscaping, hospitality, construction, and countless other industries, employers depend on the H‑2A and H‑2B programs to meet workforce needs, support operations, and keep local economies strong. At másLabor, we continue to lead the industry in securing seasonal workforce solutions for our clients, while advocating nationally for the regulatory improvements America’s businesses urgently need.
A Win for Seasonal Employers, Recent H‑2B Cap Relief
One of the most significant developments early this year was the release of supplemental H‑2B visas. This cap relief delivers meaningful support to employers facing ongoing labor shortages and, while demand continues to outpace supply, the additional visas create a stronger pathway for businesses to secure timely workers and avoid early‑season disruptions. This expansion reduces uncertainty, prevents operational delays, and ensures that seasonal businesses, from resorts to seafood processors to landscaping firms, can launch their peak seasons without unnecessary hassle. Cap relief is not simply a policy decision, it is a lifeline that preserves local economies, protects American jobs that rely on seasonal workforce stability, and strengthens business continuity nationwide.
NCAE Annual Conference, Industry Leadership in Action
másLabor recently joined agricultural leaders at the National Council of Agricultural Employers (NCAE) Annual Conference, where growers, industry experts, and policymakers collaborated on improving the H‑2A program. We are proud to support and take part in these essential discussions.
During the event, NCAE leadership emphasized the impact of direct dialogue with key officials in the Trump Administration:
“To have these key policy makers in the Trump Administration hear from, and speak to, our members made a critical impact for everyone involved. NCAE members committed to working with the Trump Administration to improve the operation of the H‑2A program,” said John Hollay, President and CEO of NCAE. “If our members, and the Trump Administration, are going to realize the true value of the regulatory relief President Trump intended with this AEWR IFR, then it is imperative they utilize NCAE’s member expertise to achieve that shared goal.”
This collaboration underscores the value of continued advocacy and reinforces the importance of industry voices in shaping policy that supports American employers.
Seasonal Employment Alliance Meeting, United Advocacy for H‑2B
Additionally, the Seasonal Employment Alliance (SEA) meeting in Phoenix, Arizona brought together industry leaders to address crucial issues affecting the H‑2B program. Topics included program modernization, returning‑worker provisions, and ongoing efforts to secure predictable seasonal labor supply.
másLabor actively engages with SEA and other national organizations because the strength of the H‑2 programs, and the industries that depend on them, relies on unified, informed advocacy. These partnerships directly benefit our clients and the communities they serve.
