ICE officials told to resume raids on hotels, restaurants, and farms

Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents have received directives to restart workplace inspections at sectors including hotels, restaurants, and farms. These operations had been temporarily halted by the Trump administration.

ICE officers are under significant pressure to fulfill a directive from the White House, which aims to detain 3,000 migrants daily. This initiative follows contentious raids in Los Angeles that led to extensive public demonstrations.

“The president has made his stance very clear. There will be no refuge for industries that shelter violent offenders or intentionally attempt to disrupt ICE’s operations,” stated Tricia McLaughlin, the Department of Homeland Security’s assistant secretary for public affairs.

“Worksite enforcement remains a cornerstone of our efforts to safe guard public safety, national security and economic stability. These operations target illegal employment networks that undermine American workers, destabilize labor markets and expose critical infrastructure to exploitation.”

The White House over the weekend suspended the raids, with President Trump backing the idea.

“Our great Farmers and people in the Hotel and Leisure business have been stating 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,” the president wrote Thursday.

“This is not good. We must protect our Farmers, but get the CRIMINALS OUT OF THE USA. Changes are coming!” he added.

But Trump shifted his tune Tuesday morning, again blaming his predecessor while saying he planned to continue operations in large, often Democratic-led cities.

“We’re going to look everywhere, but I think the biggest problem is the inner cities. We’re looking everywhere. What they let into this country. What [former President] Biden let in or allowed to, I don’t think he knew what the hell he was doing, frankly, but whoever worked for him, but what they let into this country, we’re never going to forget it,” he said.
