This is truly a disgrace. On the designated Made in America week, the Trump administration (DHS) authorized 15,000 visas for seasonal workers. These are H2B visas that are used for non agricultural temp jobs. Now we know why the wall has not been built yet. Trump's Florida resort takes advantage of this program too it seems.
It is worth noting that TIC & Family outsources it's own manufacturing while celebrating the Made in America week. And the 'deplorables' will absolutely soak this up as yet another MAGA moment.
Can anyone here make sense of this statement?
Quote:
The official also insisted the increase in foreign workers squarely fits into the president’s talking points to “hire American.”
“The Secretary first and foremost is committed to protect American workers and strengthening the integrity of the immigration system,” he added.
“We’re talking about American businesses at risk of suffering irreparable harm if they don’t get additional H-b workers so that fits into the ‘American workers’ first” mentality, another senior official said. “This does help with American businesses continuing to prosper.”
