USDA rejects amnesty for farmworkers

The USDA secretary said farmworkers facing deportation will not have amnesty.

Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins states there will be “no amnesty” for farmworkers amid deportation efforts targeting immigrants in the country illegally.

The big picture: The Trump administration initially considered pausing raids on some farm worksites before changing course.

  • Rollins emphasizes the administration’s goal for a 100% American workforce and suggests that recipients of government aid could potentially fill the gap left by immigrant workers.
