· Montana Kaimin · By Courtney Anderson · From the Border Crossing Law Firm media archive.
The Montana Kaimin examines the health and legal needs of migrant agricultural workers, including Flathead cherry pickers and H-2A workers across the state. Drawing on Shahid Haque's UM workshop, the article explains that Montana's immigrant population is larger and more varied than many residents assume, and that visible Latino workers encounter profiling that undocumented Canadians often avoid.
The report connects Shahid's legal advocacy with the practical work of a rural health clinic. Both addressed the isolation and fear that can keep migrant workers from seeking essential services in Montana.
