Trump says ‘there’s no amnesty’ for migrant farm workers

UNITED STATES, JUL 8 – The Trump administration aims to continue mass deportations while allowing temporary visas for farmworkers to maintain agricultural labor amid a push toward a 100% American workforce, officials said.

  • At the July 8 White House cabinet meeting, President Donald Trump reaffirmed 'no amnesty' while emphasizing strategic deportations to balance farm labor needs.
  • Mounting industry pressure and policy conflicts led the Trump administration to pause deportation raids affecting farm workers, as officials balance enforcement with labor needs.
  • USDA data shows 42% of crop farmworkers lacked authorization from 2020 to 2022, with reports indicating labor shortages due to unauthorized workers, impacting crop production.
  • The Department of Labor plans to create a 'concierge approach' to streamline H visa programs and reassures there will be 'no amnesty' for undocumented workers, according to officials.
  • The Trump administration aims for a fully American workforce by combining strategic deportations with automation, leveraging 34 million able-bodied Medicaid adults, as of June 2025.
