President Donald Trump said his administration is developing a "temporary pass" system that would allow undocumented workers in the agricultural and hospitality industries to continue working legally under employer oversight, marking a potential shift in immigration enforcement policy.

"We're working on it right now," Trump said in a Fox News interview. "We're going to work it so that some kind of a temporary pass [is created] where people pay taxes, where the farmer can have a little control, as opposed to you walk in and take everybody away."
