Trump indicates course changes to migration policy – Diepresse.com

US President Donald Trump indicates a change of course in his migration policy. « Our great farmers and people in the hotel and leisure sector have explained that our very aggressive immigration policy takes away very good, longstanding workers, » wrote Trump on the online platform Truth Social.
In terms of statements, Trump explained to journalists that such workers had worked for American farmers for 20 or 25 years and that they « loved » their workforce: they were not a citizen, but had proven to be « great ». You can’t take their people and send them back just because they lack something that they might have.
In the United States, numerous people live and work without papers
Trump obviously alluded to the fact that there are many people in the United States without a valid residence status who have been living in the country for years. Around 10 to 11 million people currently live in the United States without papers. They mainly work in areas such as agriculture, construction, care and gastronomy, often under precarious conditions. Even if they usually pay taxes, they are excluded from many state benefits.
A particularly large number of people live in Los Angeles without papers: almost a million. The protests that have been taking place there for days are directed against security forces from the US immigration authority ICE that arrest migrants without a valid residence status to deport them. Trump had promised in the election campaign to start the largest deportation program in American history.
Newsom sees itself confirmed
California’s governor, Gavin Newsom, sees himself confirmed by Trump’s statements in his position. It shows that it is not a good policy to pursue hard -working people on farms and to attack women and children on the street, he wrote on the X platform X on Trump’s post.
Newsom had recently accused Trump of driving military raids in Los Angeles, who went far beyond his declared intention to only proceed against violent perpetrators and severe criminals. « His agents arrested plates, gardeners, day laborers and seamstresses, » complained Newsom. Trump does not protect communities, but traumatize them.
Trump now announced soon changes without giving any further details. (APA)
