United States President Donald Trump stated that his administration, along with the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), was working on new legislation that would "put the farmers in charge," allowing immigrants who have worked on farms to stay in the country "if a farmer is willing to vouch" for them.
At his rally in Iowa, Trump stated that his administration "didn't want to do it where we take all of the workers off the farms, we want the farms to do great, like they're doing right now." He added that "people have worked on a farm for fourteen, fifteen years and they get thrown out pretty viciously and we can't do it, we got to work with the farmers and people who have hotels and leisure properties too."
