U.S. KEEPS PROCESSING SEASONAL WORKER VISAS AFTER WARNING FROM FARMERS

The State Department said Thursday it would keep processing visas for seasonal workers, after earlier saying it would suspend routine visa services in most countries indefinitely. The reversal came as lawmakers pushed the administration to do whatever possible to keep seasonal workers, most of whom come from Mexico, in the pipeline. Farmers warned the suspension could threaten their livelihoods. (Wall Street Journal)
