Wasn't one of the Trump's big appeals his promise to protect American jobs? How can anyone support this, and how can the US government issue visas for cooks, waiters, and housekeepers. Clearly there are people in this country with the skill set for these jobs?
Maybe he is just after Russian workers to make it easier to provide Putin his secrets.
President Trump's Mar-a-Lago Club in Florida has asked permission to hire 70 foreign workers this fall, attesting — in the middle of the White House's “Made in America Week” — that it cannot find qualified Americans to serve as cooks, waiters and housekeepers.
Those requests were made to the Department of Labor in recent days and posted online Thursday. The for-profit club, where Trump spent numerous weekends this spring, asked permission to hire 15 housekeepers, 20 cooks and 35 waiters.
In addition, Trump's golf club in nearby Jupiter, Fla. asked permission to hire six foreign workers as cooks. The applications to the Department of Labor are a first step in the process of applying for H-2B visas, which would allow the clubs to bring in foreigners for temporary work between October and next May.
Earlier this week, the Trump administration said it would expand the number of H-2B visas available nationwide this year by 15,000, using power granted by Congress to go beyond the statutory cap of 66,000 per year. This category of visas are given to foreign workers filling temporary jobs outside the agriculture industry, in fields like construction, fishing and tourism.
Mar-a-Lago is open only during Palm Beach's ritzy winter “season,” when the club's wealthy members arrive from colder climes and the ballrooms are used for charity galas. It has applied for H-2B visas in past years, although this year's request is slightly larger than the one in 2016. That year, Trump's club asked for 64 workers: This year, he is asking for one more cook and five more waiters.
Now, the Labor Department — which reports to Trump — must make decisions that will affect two for-profit business that the president still owns.
The next step, a Department of Labor spokesman said, is that the two clubs must take steps to try to recruit American workers for these jobs. That often involves placing help-wanted ads in local newspapers and contacting former workers. If those efforts are unsuccessful, then Trump's clubs can ask for the Department of Labor to certify that it has tried and failed to hire Americans. After that, the Trump clubs can ask the Department of Homeland Security to issue visas for workers it has found in other countries.
Egan Reich, a spokesman for the Labor Department who is a career employee, wrote in response to inquiries from The Washington Post that "The Department of Labor does not give preference or special treatment to any business or individual.”
Trump built his campaign last year in part on an appeal to American workers angry that their jobs had been taken by immigrants or laborers overseas. In his inaugural address, Trump said that under his leadership the country would “follow two simple rules: buy American, and hire American.”
And this week, Trump has celebrated American companies and American labor, including an event at the White House where the president climbed into the cab of an American-made firetruck. In a proclamation Monday, Trump said he called “upon Americans to pay special tribute to the builders, to the ranchers, to the crafters, and to all those who work every day to make America great.”
Earlier this year, the Trump Winery near Charlottesville, Va., applied for visas to hire 23 foreign workers under a different visa program meant for farm workers.
The Trump Organization did not respond to questions sent by email on Thursday afternoon, asking why American workers could not be found to fill these jobs — and if the company had made any extra efforts this year, in light of Trump's calls to hire American workers.
The Secret Service did not respond to a query asking whether it would have a role in vetting any foreign laborers hired to work in a club that serves, at times, as the president's home.
Those who voted for him still don't realize that he is someone with marketing skills & an entertainer. He is not a policy nor detail guy. Wins vs loses is his yardstick regardless of outcome. What he campaigned on and what he will deliver will look very differently. Buyer beware.
Wins vs loses is his yardstick
Sounds familiar.
I am pretty much hardline illegal immigration type, but there is a guest worker program for legal temporary alien workers in place and there is very little wrong with that in my opinion.
Now for Trump, at best the optics are horrible. I just think about how he could totally control some of these narratives if he said he was making his products in the US or his companies were bending over backwards to fill open positions with qualified US citizen workers.
It is true time and time again, supporters say how the media attacks him at every corner, and they do, but as has always been the case, he sets the table perfectly for them. A little strategic planning and he could lead by example, but he doesn't. Wasted opportunities to walk the walk instead of just talk talk talk.
Is participating in a legal guest worker program a bad thing? What business scholars here see a reason that Trump Organization needs to revamp their employee programs literally overnight? The hospitality industry is filled with low paying jobs.

It's not for highly skilled workers who are in short supply or crop pickers, but it's a terrible thing when it takes jobs away from American citizens as is the case here. Isn't the whole idea of the border wall to keep illegals out who will take away American jobs? If not then it really is just a racist barrier to keep the brown people out.

The wall (part of a campaign catch phrase) that will never get built was rhetoric to incite crowds and garner votes. Even with some miracle that it would, there would be some exclusion cause or some justifiable exclusion in his distorted perception of reality for Trump properties, as he doesn't see personal conflicts of interest. He also doesn't believe that that protocol, ethics, & laws apply to his family.

2112, there are different work Visas. The H2B Visa shouldn't be confused with the H1B or H2A. H2B is for temporary workers just like a resort would hire, which is what Mar-a-Lago is seeking, just like Disney might. H1B is the skilled worker permit and H2A is the agricultural worker permit.
These programs have long been in place and utilized. Are you suggesting that they be eliminated?
It is a terrible thing when an illegal alien is in our country with no legal standing or work permit and takes a job away from an America citizen wishing to do that work. But it is not a terrible thing when an alien with temporary legal working status takes a job away, that is simply permitted by law.
I get the argument with respect to Trump and I expressed my agreement, in his position with the message he has put forth it is contradictory and inconsistent to not do everything possible to fill the jobs with American citizens.
So I'm confused, do we agree or disagree or do you want to just argue anything and everything related to Trump?
I don't know what's worse, outright arrogant ignorant buffoonery, or stealth downplay deflection apologetics.

Regardless of whether legal or not, we should not be bringing workers from overseas to fill jobs that many Americans could fill. I'm sure there are plenty of Americans who could cook, wait tables and clean rooms at these resorts. Importing workers for these jobs takes jobs away from Americans just as illegal workers do. So, I guess we disagree. #1 - I don't like the program and # #2 - Legal or not, the president, especially one who has been pushing the narrative of American workers first, should not be taking advantage of a program such as this. It makes it hard to take him seriously to say the least.
I don't really care about any of that. What pisses me off is Trump and Ivanka doing all of their manufacturing overseas and not even hinting at bringing it back to the US. Hypocrisy at its finest

Only 70 for jobs in the U.S. where the taxes will be paid to the U.S.? These are jobs that Americans will not do because they already live off of working Americans.
That is a paltry number compared to the hundreds of thousands applied for and allow in to work every year.
This is just another attack piece from the Washington Compost that matters to no one.
Kinda like their article last week noting that the Russian Ambassador being "spotted" at a restaurant in D.C. "only a few blocks from President Trump's new hotel".
WAPO never mentioned the Russian Ambassador being spotted in the Senate dining room with Sen. Diane Feinstein (D).
This is the trash that feeds the liberal mind.

I would say one of the differences here, is that the other "thousands" weren't intentionally brought in by the President of the United States, the same President who based alot of his campaign and platform on keeping these people out. Just more hypocrisy, dishonesty and hot air from the big orange machine...........Peace..........joe

I respect that sentiment, I've never considered restrictions to the guest worker visa program, I do think it could or should be open for evaluation for reasons you say. I was just taking it for granted that these programs have enjoyed support from various groups of people. So maybe we really do agree 
I don't really care about any of that. What pisses me off is Trump and Ivanka doing all of their manufacturing overseas and not even hinting at bringing it back to the US. Hypocrisy at its finest

I wish I was a Republican so I could tell my fellow Republicans that this guy is really bad news.
Trump is turning me into a Republican. Maybe this is one of those times in US history where Dems and Repubs switch places again. Entirely possible that this is how it happens, the most extreme elements of a party turn the whole thing inside out, we go through the singularity and come out through the looking glass.
Curiouser and curiouser, said Alice.
These are jobs that Americans will not do because they already live off of working Americans.
This sounds like a 5 year old wrote this sentence. Congrats.

If this is the case, then why did you quote them the other day to prove a point you wanted to make? Just curious.

I never would have known about these articles. Thanks for sharing them, and pointing out that you read the Washington Post.
I see the left wing extremists here still cannot differentiate between an immigrant, temporary seasonal workers and illegal aliens.
President Trump never criticized immigrants. It is the illegal aliens he and the clear majority of Americans want out and off the hand-out system.
Maybe y'all should ask Boyton. You may have to wait though because he is still trying to figure out what a safe-space is and why the little snowflakes are demanding theirs.

Then if that is the case, he has done nothing to halt illegal immigration. In fact, as many illegals enter the country on H-2B visas and Trump has increased the number of people on those visas, he is helping illegals. And by hiring thes people in his own business, he is personally offering them chances to be illegals..
Not only that, he is profiting from his own rulings. Isn't that a conflict of interest? Come on now, insult your betters. We are waiting.

Let me take a stab at this. A safe space is the imagined world someone creates for themselves void of anything that offends them, so that they are not ever upset or disturbed. One who creates the safe space is the snowflake. Here's an example. An insecure citizen feels threatened by change and diversity (the snowflakes), and want to create their safe place with a travel ban and border wall so they can feel better about their lives.

I clearly understand the H-2B visa program and your statement is just another lie generated from your ignorance:
Your " In fact, as many illegals enter the country on H-2B visas" is a lie.
Lets break it down to a simple level so that the left-wing loons here can understand it sine obviously they need the factual information they lack:
1.) H-2B visa holders are in the U.S. legally and you cannot prove otherwise.
2.) The Trump organization, just like every other company that applies for H-2B visa workers must first try to hire citizens and provide proof of doing so in their application for H-2B visa workers. The Trump organization did try to hire citizens and provided the Florida Department of Labor the documentation proving that that could not get citizen and thus legally applied for the H-2B visa workers.
3.) This shows just how politically motivated the corrupt liberal media is when they write this fake news:
The Truth Behind Donald Trump Hiring “Temp H-2B Visa Workers” in Florida…
theconservativetreehouse.com |
In what they call a “Reuters Exclusive” the news agency tries to undermine Donald Trump’s candidacy because Trump businesses have used H-2B Visa applications to hire workers. This is an absolute joke, we’ll explain why.
Reuters Screenshot
Why this is a nothingburger – Those unfamiliar with the South Florida general labor market are most likely unfamiliar with the extreme swings in “seasonal need” workers.
Does the word “Snowbird” ring a bell? Florida has a “tourist season” which runs from (generally speaking) just after Thanksgiving to Easter annually. January, February and March are the peak. The first Monday in February is the absolute peak as almost every time-share and hotel unit flips that week.
The volume of work within the service and hospitality industry doubles during the tourist season, and those businesses who hire within the general labor market struggle to increase their labor in relationship to the increase in business. In addition, local workers looking for employment are reluctant to take temporary or “seasonal” jobs, and prefer longer term -more stable- employment.
Many businesses need to double, or in some cases triple, their workforce in order to meet the business demand. [In 2014 97,300,000 tourists visited Florida].
As a consequence many companies, including Trump owned resorts, have used H-2B visa workers to fill the gap between large fluctuations in business and the needed staffing shortfalls. From my own experience, many of the workers are students from South America (Argentina, Brazil, etc) who take the seasonal jobs Nov/Dec – March/April between their college seasons – and then return home.
In addition you’ll note the dates of the Reuters data:
Trump owns companies that have sought to import at least 1,100 foreign workers on temporary visas since 2000, according to U.S. Department of Labor data reviewed by Reuters. Most of the applications were approved, the data show. (link)
“2000 through 2015” Another factor – During the timeframe of 2000 to 2007 the seasonal hiring problem was compounded by the boom in the housing market and overall thriving U.S. economy. Any generally healthy worker, who could swing a hammer, could triple their income switching to the housing or building sector.
Bartenders, waiters/waitresses, housekeepers, maintenance and general workers left the hospitality industry to make $25-$40hr in low skill construction jobs. The H-2B visa use increased at the same rate to help fill the worker void. Actually, the H-2B visa use initially started gaining wide-scale acceptance exactly for this reason. The economy was good, workers were scarce and demand for workers greater than the labor market.
[…] The Labor Department records don’t specify the nationality of the foreign workers sought by companies. But Trump could be bringing many Mexican workers into the United States.
Reuters examined records of applications for three categories of temporary work visas – the H-2A, H-2B and H-1B programs – submitted by employers to the Labor Department.
The temporary work visa program through which Trump’s companies have sought the greatest numbers of workers, H-2B, brings in mostly workers from Mexico. Mexicans made up more than 80 percent of the 104,993 admissions to the United States on H-2B visas in 2013. The Trump companies have sought at least 850 H-2B visa workers.
The H-2B program, which receives little government oversight, is used by companies in sectors ranging from hospitality to forestry to hire foreign workers for temporary jobs. Companies must prove that the jobs are seasonal – and that they tried and failed to hire Americans.
U.S. government watchdogs have criticized the H-2B and H-2A programs over the years for failing to protect foreign and American workers alike.
[…] The Mar-a-Lago, a luxury resort in Palm Beach, Florida, has sought the most foreign workers of the nine Trump businesses: 787 workers since 2006, according to the data.
This month, the resort filed paperwork seeking to bring in 70 foreign workers later this year on H-2B visas to serve as maids, cooks and wait staff, according to paperwork known as “job orders” published on the Labor Department’s web site. (read more)
See?
The entire article is a nothingburger once you understand the issue at hand. Palm Beach, Florida tourism season doubles, and at times triples, the business not only for Donald Trump resorts, but for every business in/around the host and hospitality sector.
Palm Beach, like many South Florida areas even have celebrations when the “snowbirds”, “frog heads”, and “tourons” go home at season’s end.
Reuters is trying to make a regional common practice seem like something rather controversial. The FAIL is strong on this one.

Let me try this again. Yes, they are legal when the enter with the visa. When the visa expires and they stay they are illegal. Do you get it yet? No? Shocking! 😛
Those who voted for him still don't realize that he is someone with marketing skills & an entertainer. He is not a policy nor detail guy. Wins vs loses is his yardstick regardless of outcome. What he campaigned on and what he will deliver will look very differently. Buyer beware.
As someone wrote so eloquently to the LA Times Opinion section a while back, President Trump is nothing more than a "ruthless self promotor." To hell with him and the rest of his lackeys.
I know! What, its been like 6 months already. Throw the bum out! Obama had 8 years to fix immigration and the economy
I know! What, its been like 6 months already. Throw the bum out! Obama had 8 years to fix immigration and the economy
He fixed the economy. The GOP blocked everything they could.
Yes, throw the crook out.
