[quote=Anonymous]Trump is going to tell ICE to not go after farm and hotel workers. Hm... who would benefit from that? 🤔

And what will MAGA say?  And how will ICE make their quotas?

[quote] President Donald Trump said he plans to make changes to his administration's aggressive crackdown on illegal immigration to protect migrant farmers, hotel workers and others in the leisure industry who have been among those deported.

Trump promised the changes in a June 12 Truth Social post that acknowledged Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers have expanded arrests beyond just migrants convicted of violent crimes, who Trump officials have said are the primary targets of raids and deportations.
About 42% of farm workers in the United States between 2020 and 2022 lacked legal status, according to the U.S. Department of Homeland Security.

"Our farmers are being hurt badly," Trump said during an event in the White House East Room when asked about his position. "You know, they have very good workers. They've worked for them for 20 years. They're not citizens, but they've turned out to be, you know, great."

Trump said he plans to sign an executive order to address the situation, adding that it will take a "common sense" approach. "We can't take farmers, take all their people and send them back because they don't have maybe what they're supposed to have, maybe not," Trump said

The Trump family's company, the Trump Organization, has a history of relying on labor from undocumented immigrants to staff Trump-owned hotels, the Washington Post reported in 2019, citing accounts from 48 former and current Trump workers. The migrants included hotel housekeepers, groundskeepers, waiters and stonemasons.[/quote]
