The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) confirmed that aggressive immigration raids would continue to target worksites, despite recent comments from President Donald Trump suggesting some agriculture and hospitality workers should be shielded.
"Worksite operations are very much a cornerstone of our enforcement operations," Tricia McLaughlin, assistant secretary at DHS, told Newsmax on Tuesday. "These worksites are hubs for drug trafficking, human trafficking, labor trafficking."
