President Trump acknowledged that his “very aggressive” immigration policies are ripping long-time workers from the farming and hospitality industries, in a Thursday Truth Social post.
The big picture: Trump’s concession comes after reports of federal immigration raids on farms stoked fears among vital agricultural workers during the summer growing season.
Driving the news: “Our great Farmers and people in the Hotel and Leisure business have been stating that our very aggressive policy on immigration is taking very good, long time workers away from them, with those jobs being almost impossible to replace,” the president wrote Thursday.
- Trump tried to blame former President Biden for allowing “Criminals” to apply for farmworker jobs.
- “This is not good,” he continued. “We must protect our Farmers, but get the CRIMINALS OUT OF THE USA. Changes are coming!”
- Asked what those changes may be, Department of Homeland Security Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin told Axios in a statement, “We will follow the President’s direction and continue to work to get the worst of the worst criminal illegal aliens off of America’s streets.”
