U.S. President Donald Trump has announced plans to issue a new executive order aimed at addressing labor shortages in the agriculture and tourism sectors, which have been affected by his administration’s stricter immigration policies.
Speaking at a White House event, Trump emphasized that many undocumented workers who have been employed on American farms for decades are now at risk of deportation, creating serious challenges for farmers.
“Our farmers are in a very bad situation. They have workers who have been with them for 20 to 25 years. They’re not citizens, but they’ve proven to be great workers. It’s not right to send them away. If we do, farmers end up having to hire people with criminal backgrounds,” Trump said.
He indicated that a new executive order addressing the issue could be announced soon. Trump also noted that similar labor shortages are affecting the leisure and hospitality industries, particularly hotels, and called for a “common sense” approach to the situation.
Earlier on Thursday, the president had addressed the same concerns in a social media post, stressing the need to find solutions for labor shortages in both agriculture and the service sector.
