Trump says changes are coming to ICE raid policy: 'We must protect our farmers'
Briefly

President Donald Trump announced on Truth Social a reversal of his immigration raid policy affecting farm workers, acknowledging the importance of these workers to the agriculture sector. He noted that aggressive immigration policies are removing essential, long-term workers, making it challenging for farmers to find replacements. California Governor Gavin Newsom applauded this change, emphasizing that community feedback led to the policy shift. The announcement follows a court ruling limiting Border Patrol's ability to make arrests without a warrant, which impacted recent ICE raids in California, highlighting the complexities of immigration enforcement in the region.
Trump wrote that 'our very aggressive policy on immigration is taking very good, long-time workers away from them, with those jobs being almost impossible to replace.'
According to Newsom, after meeting a boy whose parents had been taken by agents, 'Donald Trump may not care about him, but he's finally listening to you calling out these indiscriminate acts of cruelty.'
