President Trump SHUTS DOWN talk of “amnesty” for illegal farm workers once and for all.
After weeks of media speculation and panic from pundits, Trump just made it crystal clear—there will be NO amnesty.
.
During his cabinet meeting, a reporter tried to pin him down:
“Mr. President, on immigration. The Secretary of Agriculture did say this morning that ‘undocumented’ workers would not be covered by any amnesty for working on the farms. You had said maybe that the ICE folks won’t go after those folks on farms. So which is it?”
.
Trump squashed the narrative on the spot:
“No, no. There’s NO amnesty. What we’re doing is we’re getting rid of criminals, but we are doing a work program.”
.
Secretary Brooke Rollins jumped in to back him up:
“This morning we talked about, of course, this was a top-of-mind question. This morning we talked about protecting the farmers and the farmland. But obviously this president’s vision of no amnesty, mass deportation continues, but in a strategic way. And then ensuring that our farmers have the labor that they need.”
.
Trump then hammered it home:
“We want to give the farmers the people they need, but we’re not talking amnesty.”
