<p dir="null" data-apitype="text" data-contentid="5JXSGHV7KZDJ7N25OPPKH26IYM" data-el="text" data-scroll-pos="2" data-scroll-measured="true">Last week, President Donald Trump said there would be a forthcoming policy change regarding deportations at farms, hotels, and leisure businesses. He said he wanted his administration to use “common sense” and not focus on deporting “good workers&#8221; who have been here for decades.</p>
</div>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">“Our farmers are being hurt badly. They have very good workers who have worked for them for 20 years. They’re not citizens, but they’ve turned out to be great, and we’re going to have to do something about that. </span><span style="font-weight: 400;">We can’t take farmers and take all their people and send them back,&#8221; the president said. &#8220;Y</span><span style="font-weight: 400;">ou know what’s going to happen &#8212; what is happening, they get rid of some of their people … and they end up hiring the criminals that have come in, the murderers from prisons and everything else.”</span></p>
<p>Before the apparent reversal, the announcement to slow down such raids generated pushback from some Trump supporters, arguing that the move was<span style="font-weight: 400;"> de facto amnesty and not what they voted for. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Rep. Thomas Massie (R-KY) – who’s disagreed with Trump over a number of issues – had <a href="https://x.com/RepThomasMassie/status/1933966075449709031">criticized</a> the policy shift, writing, “Under Trump’s new immigration enforcement policy, if you’re an illegal alien, I guess you just have to switch jobs to a restaurant, hotel, farm, or meat packing plant?”</span></p>
