Feeling a shift in Washington? Big changes are underway, putting everyday Americans back in the driver’s seat. Find out what powerful move is shaking things up for the better!
It feels like a fresh breeze is blowing through Washington these days, doesn’t it? For too long, common sense seemed to be on vacation, but it looks like that vacation is decidedly over.
People are starting to notice a real difference. It’s like someone finally remembered who they work for and decided to get things done for the American people, not the special interests.
And boy, is President Trump getting things done! He just put his foot down hard on illegal immigration, according to reports from the Washington Post. That short-lived, silly idea to give a free pass to farms, hotels, and meatpackers on ICE enforcement? Gone. Trump reversed it, big time! Homeland Security spokeswoman Tricia McLoughlin even told Fox, “We continue to enforce the law … there is no safe harbor.”
Americans Back to Work
This is fantastic news for ordinary Americans. For years, many have felt pushed aside by employers who preferred to hire illegal migrants willing to work for less. But now, with real enforcement, things are changing.
Just look at what happened at Glenn Valley Foods in Nebraska. After an ICE raid, Americans were eager for those jobs.
From NBC, as reported by Breitbart:
“Every seat in the waiting area of Glenn Valley Foods was occupied with people filling out job applications early Thursday afternoon, two days after the meatpacking plant became the center of the largest worksite immigration raid in the state of Nebraska so far this year.”
That says it all. When jobs are open and laws are enforced, Americans are ready and willing to work.
Better Pay, Better Lives
It’s not just about finding a job; it’s about good jobs with fair pay. President Trump’s strong stance on immigration is helping workers earn more. At the JBS meatpacking firm, workers recently got a groundbreaking new union contract. This deal includes pay raises, paid sick leave, and even a pension plan for 26,000 workers.
Thelma Cruz, who has worked at JBS for 10 years, said, “when I got the news about the pension, I was excited.” This is a world away from how things were under the previous administration. Back then, JBS allegedly benefited from a steady stream of cheap labor, with some migrants even living in “grim conditions,” as the Wall Street Journal reported. President Trump’s policies put an end to that exploitation.
Why the Swamp is Squealing
Of course, not everyone is happy about this return to law and order. Big business groups and their lobbyists in Washington are reportedly “heavily lobbying” against this crackdown. Groups like the American Business Immigration Coalition, which is connected to outfits like FWD.us that profited from open-borders policies, are upset. They preferred it when they could easily find cheap labor, even if it hurt American workers. But President Trump is standing firm for the American people.
Thankfully, many smart, patriotic businesses understand the importance of hiring legally and investing in America. Take Meriwether Farms, for example. They proudly state, “we only hire US citizens on our farm and in our meat packing plant,” and they provide healthcare for their full-time employees. Other farms are also innovating, buying labor-saving technology like robot milkers instead of relying on illegal labor. This is the path to a stronger economy and a stronger nation—investing in American workers and American ingenuity.
This is what real leadership looks like. President Trump is putting Americans first, just like he promised. It’s about fairness, following the law, and making sure our country works for its own citizens. Common sense is back, and it’s making America stronger, one smart decision at a time.
