A labor shortage is affecting Texas restaurants, leading to increased food costs. This issue is partly due to immigration enforcement, which has caused some restaurants to lose employees. The Texas Restaurant Association is advocating for a solution to this problem.
Further information is available from the association and local news sources. Details about the labor shortage and its effects on the restaurant industry can be found through local news outlets, including KXXV News in Waco, TX.
