White House on Georgia Hyundai Plant Raid: Prioritizing American Jobs

Administration's Stance on Foreign Investment and Labor

• 🇺🇸 The President is grateful for foreign companies investing in the U.S. and understands their need to bring highly skilled and trained workers with them, especially for niche products like batteries.
• 🎯 However, the administration expects these foreign companies to hire American workers and for foreign and American workers to collaborate and train each other.
• 🔑 The core message is that "We want Americans to have these jobs" and that Americans need these jobs.

Potential Policy Adjustments

• 💡 The President is open to exploring changes in rules or visa regulations to prevent future situations like the immigration raid at the Georgia plant.
• 🤝 This approach is described as nuanced, responsible, and sensible.
• 🏛️ The Department of Homeland Security and the Department of Commerce are actively working together on this matter.
