President Trump has reportedly reversed guidance issued to Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) that would halt deportation operations against illegal agriculture, restaurant, and hotel workers in a move consistent with his promise to execute mass deportations.
The Gateway Pundit reported that the Trump Administration issued guidance to regional ICE officials to halt the operations in these sectors.
“Effective today, please hold on all work site enforcement investigations/operations on agriculture (including aquaculture and meat packing plants), restaurants, and operating hotels,” the memo from a senior ICE official read.
The memo added, “We acknowledge that by taking this off the table, that we are eliminating a significant # of potential targets.”
Department of Homeland Security spokesperson Tricia McLaughlin said, “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.”
Trump Directs ICE to Stop Raids in Agriculture, Hotel and Restaurant Industries — Focus Only on ‘Criminal’ Aliens
The President said on Truth Social last week that his “very aggressive” deportation policy is causing farm, hotel, and leisure businesses to lose workers that are “almost impossible to replace.”
“We must protect our Farmers, but get the CRIMINALS OUT OF THE USA,” the President said in a controversial move that upset many of his biggest supporters.
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. In many cases the Criminals allowed into our Country by the VERY Stupid Biden Open Borders Policy are applying for those jobs. This is not good. We must protect our Farmers, but get the CRIMINALS OUT OF THE USA. Changes are coming!
However, as The Gateway Pundit reported, deportations of illegal aliens, even the so-called “noncriminals,” are working for American workers. After a major ICE raid at Glenn Valley Foods in Omaha, Nebraska, every seat in the plant’s waiting area was filled with prospective new hires, just 48 hours after federal agents cleared out the illegals, none of whom were “violent offenders.”
The White House has already lowered deportation estimates to at least 3,000 illegals each day, amounting to roughly 1.1 million aliens per year. This is not even close to the 20+ million who invaded our country under the Biden administration.
The Trump Administration needs to deport more than 10,000 illegals per day to fulfill the mandate given by the American people on November 5, 2024.
Exempting illegal alien restaurant, hotel, and farm workers from deportation wouldn’t help. It would only encourage illegals to get a job in this sector to continue breaking our laws.
