Speaking to reporters on Thursday, Border Czar Tom Homan was asked about a potential compromise between enforcing tough immigration policy while protecting farm labor.
00:00The other day in the cabinet meeting, the president talked about trying to find the right balance between the president's tough immigration policies and also helping out American farmers who rely on undocumented migrants to pick their crops. What does that compromise look like from your perspective?
00:19I'm not going to get ahead of the president on that. I'm discussing that with people, but until the president makes a final decision, I'm not going to get ahead of them. I'll support what the president comes up with. Again, this is a job of Congress, right? If there's a need for these workers to be into the country, we have a lack of those workers, and Congress has certainly improved the visa program, but I'm not going to get ahead of the president. I'll wait until the president makes his final decision, and we'll go from there.
