W.H. Press Sec. on Immigration Executive Order: ‘American Worker Must Come First’

‘President Trump approach this in a very smart and measured way’

EXCERPT:

McENANY: "First, I want to emphasize the President Trump approached this in a very smart and measured way. This affects green card holders, not temporary workers. So hotels, for instance, landscapers, these types of jobs will not be affected. But what President Trump has said is this — we are at a time where the American worker must come first. I sit in the Oval Office with him, across from him, watching him make these decisions. He has a singular focus; the health of the American people and the economic well-being. This is a smart and measured response that he took. And guess what? 81% of Americans are with him, according to Pew. SO what a great moment when you can see the American people stand with the president to the tune of 81%."
