Over the past week, workers employed in Baja California, Mexico have been on strike over poor working conditions and low pay. If this strike continues, the harvest of millions in produce could be in jeopardy. As of Tuesday, more than 50,000 workers are participating in the strike. The strike has turned violent as workers throw rocks and burn tires.
