TL;DR Summary

Latino truck drivers are calling for a boycott of Florida in response to the state's new immigration laws, which require employers to use an E-verify system and hospitals to report patients' citizenship status to the governor. The boycott could have a significant impact on businesses that rely on truck drivers to transport goods, including restaurants, grocery stores, and farmers markets. Some business owners are already reporting a shortage of produce and other goods, and fear that prices could go up if the boycott continues.
