Thread: Trump: 'Comprehensive' Immigration Plan Coming in 'Two Weeks'

He said there would be no amnesty and no legalization. We already have plenty of agricultural visas for agricultural and livestock work, the last time I checked, many are unused. So they need to go home and apply for one. There are rules that put the burden of departure on the farmer and they have to pay a certain wage, cover travel expenses and take responsibility.

To the farmers I ask, are you working on the thought that there is something ethnic or racial about agricultural work? Is that why you won't hire Americans? You don't think Americans who have farmed this country since it was founded aren't capable of doing this work and only illegal aliens from other countries are? Or is it you want to hire illegal aliens so you can pay them for 40 while they work 24 hours? What is it? Why can't you sell your job opportunities to unemployed Americans? Is the pay rate, the benefits, the expenses they would need to be compensated for that you don't pay to illegal aliens?

It's time for Agriculture to get honest, come clean, and hire Americans, treat them right, and like all Americans who are trained and paid properly, they will work their asses off for you and do a great job!!
