Trump Proposes Temporary Pass for Migrants in Agricultural and Hospitality Sectors
President Donald Trump revealed that his administration is working on a proposal to create a temporary pass for certain migrants currently employed in the United States, specifically in essential sectors such as agriculture and hospitality.
During a recent interview, Trump acknowledged that many of these workers have been in the country for years, performing vital roles in areas where—as he put it—“American citizens don’t want to work.”

A measure to sustain key sectors
The initiative aims to implement a temporary permit that would allow migrants to continue working legally, pay taxes, and remain under employer supervision while staying active in their jobs. This proposal seeks to ensure the operational continuity of industries that heavily rely on migrant labor.
Although technical details and the legal framework of the proposal have yet to be defined, the intent is to provide relief to both workers and employers who would face significant challenges if these workers’ employment were disrupted.
A strategic exception amid stricter policies
The announcement comes in the context of a more rigorous immigration policy that has been in place since the beginning of the current presidential term. Nevertheless, President Trump clarified that this measure is intended to balance border security with the real needs of the U.S. economy.
According to Trump, the plan is still in the development stage, and no official guidelines on its implementation have been issued yet.
Conclusion
The proposal for a temporary pass for migrants in the agricultural and hospitality sectors represents a potential shift in the government’s immigration approach. Although still in its early stages, the measure could provide a legal alternative for thousands of workers who currently hold key roles in the nation’s economy. In the coming weeks, the administration is expected to clarify the requirements, scope, and mechanisms for implementation.
