There are many illegal marijuana farms, but federal agents targeted California’s biggest legal one
July 22, 2025
Nearly two weeks after the Trump administration staged major raids at two legal cannabis farm sites in California, the reason for the operation remains unclear. More than 360 people were arrested at the Glass House farm sites, most suspected of being in the country without legal status. The government says the business was being investigated for potential child labor, human trafficking and other abuses. Glass House says it complied with immigration and naturalization warrants and “has never knowingly violated applicable hiring practices and does not and has never employed minors.”
