[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I thought MAGA said immigrants were taking jobs away from Americans.  Now Rs want visas for these immigrant construction workers.

[quote]Trump deportation surge left Texas with shortage of home builders.

A bipartisan group of lawmakers is pushing to give special visas to construction workers, given that the Trump administration’s deportation campaign is reportedly causing a labor shortage on construction sites in states like Texas.

The Essential Workers for Economic Advancement Act, introduced in September, would offer non-citizens temporary, renewable visas for up to nine years to work in key industries where employers are struggling to hire.

“That would help us protect and get immigrants legally for those in the construction industry,” Rep. Monica De La Cruz (R-TX) told Nexstar.

De La Cruz was part of a group of South Texas leaders who met with House Speaker Mike Johnson this week to discuss the proposal, as home builders in the state warn of slowing construction times and difficulty hiring over fears of immigration raids.

Immigrants, legal and otherwise, make up more than half the construction workforce in states like Texas, California, Florida, and New York, according to the National Association of Home Builders.

Considering ICE kidnaps innocent children and mothers, I wish these workers the best of luck with not getting detained and thrown into a jail with feces-encrusted toilets and aluminum foil for a blanket.

A Colombian child who came here legally to visit Disney was detained for four months. She had a return ticket home. The mother lives in the US, is married to a US citizen,  has a current visa, and is awaiting her green card. Despite this, they kidnapped both and locked them up for four months.

So, yeah, good luck to anyone with a visa.
