Trump proposes temporary foreign expertise program
- On September 15, 2025, President Donald Trump called on foreign companies to bring expert personnel temporarily to the U.S. to train American workers in complex manufacturing.
- This call followed a recent ICE raid in Georgia that detained over 300 South Korean workers at a Hyundai plant, sparking diplomatic tensions and concerns over U.S. visa policies.
- Trump emphasized that foreign investment must include transferring knowledge and skills, noting the U.S. must relearn production of semiconductors, ships, and other advanced products to restore industrial capacity.
- Trump emphasized that he aims to encourage rather than deter foreign investment and expressed support for bringing in international experts temporarily to train American workers before returning to their home countries.
- The proposed program aims to balance strict immigration enforcement with attracting high-tech investment to rebuild domestic expertise amid ongoing tariff and economic challenges.
