You’ve probably heard a lot recently about the Trump administration's immigration crackdown with ICE raids around the country, but here’s what you might not have heard:

President Trump’s own businesses are actively seeking to hire foreign workers at his luxury properties.

CREW discovered that within days of Trump signing the One Big Beautiful Bill Act that gave ICE $75 billion in funding, Trump’s Department of Labor posted a “Job Order” from his West Palm Beach golf club to hire six seasonal foreign workers to work in the kitchen at the club’s restaurant.

Several weeks later, the Labor Department posted an order for 12 more foreign seasonal workers to work as servers at the same club.

Trump has repeatedly signalled that his immigration crackdown should conveniently include carveouts for the hospitality industry, an industry the Trump family famously makes millions in profits from. This is clear hypocrisy and an obvious conflict of interest.

Every day, CREW is exposing Trump’s corruption and conflicts of interest. If you’re with us in demanding that the president serve the people, not his profits, then join the fight to hold Trump accountable→ [[link removed]]

This isn’t the first time Trump’s businesses have sought to hire foreign seasonal workers—or even the first time since Trump returned to office.

In April, after lobbyists representing foreign seasonal labor interests hosted an event at Mar-a-Lago, the Trump administration released a batch of H-2B visas.

These visas allow foreign workers to do seasonal work in the United States, and Trump’s businesses have benefited from them for years.

In fact, only days after the new visas were posted, Trump’s Bedminster country club took advantage of the decision, filing requests to hire foreign workers at the Trump property.

Despite Trump’s rhetoric of bringing jobs back to America, his businesses continue to benefit from cheap foreign labor.

The H-2B program requires companies that hire foreign workers to prove that they can’t find Americans to do the job, however, local recruiters and prospective employees have been skeptical of the Trump Organization’s claim that it can’t find local talent for the positions it’s filling with foreign workers.

In yet another sign that he’s looking out for his businesses, Trump has repeatedly signalled recently that the growing immigration crackdown should include carveouts for the hospitality industry—essentially protecting his companies’ abilities to keep hiring foreign, and sometimes undocumented, workers without fear of raids. Just three days before signing the One Big Beautiful Bill Act, during a visit to the so-called “Alligator Alcatraz” immigrant detention camp in Florida, Trump voiced concern for the impact deportations would have on the farming and hotel industries, saying that his administration was working on exemptions that would protect those workers.

While Trump’s administration is working on exemptions for hospitality workers, its mass deportation efforts are expected to continue escalating due to the $75 billion in funding for ICE.
