Welcome to FEWA

The Federation of Employers and Workers of America (FEWA) celebrated our sixth anniversary on December 28, 2007. The association has been hard at work "Solving America's Immigration Problems One Employer And One Worker At A Time" for members and the general business community.

What is FEWA?

FEWA is its membership! FEWA is the national voice of the existing legal guest worker programs community.

FEWA is a non-profit association originally created to assist employers and workers in labor-intensive service industries.  Now employer members' industries include: Construction, Restaurants, Lodging, Golf, Marine Salvage, Landscape, Nurseries, Agriculture, Amusement Parks, Shrimping, etc.  Specifically, FEWA is dedicated to improving business conditions, building awareness, and providing services in the areas of labor retention and management.  FEWA has grown to nearly 7,500 members and collectively has secured extensive legislative success through coalition work in our nation’s Capitol.

FEWA provides several programs and services to help member employers and workers.  One of the many services provided is assistance with the federal guest worker programs such as the H-2 programs.  These programs allow employers, who qualify with the United States Department of Labor (USDOL) and are approved by the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS), to hire temporary migrant labor from almost anywhere in the world.

Benefits of FEWA membership include:  Guidance related to the federal H-2B and H-2A programs for members, legislation and immigration updates of issues affecting seasonal labor, scholarships, legal information provided by FEWA staff attorneys, educational conferences and seminars, informational publications and worker relief programs.
