## Trump vows to ‘hire American.’ His businesses keep hiring foreign guest workers

President-elect Donald Trump vowed on the campaign trail to do everything in his power to benefit American workers.

Despite that pledge, Trump’s own businesses sought to hire more foreign guest workers this year than any other year on record, according to a CNN review of government labor data.

Forbes first reported on Friday Trump’s businesses hired more foreign workers than ever in 2024.

While thousands of US businesses use guest workers, the process of hiring them can be cumbersome.

Dattolo said dozens of country clubs and businesses in the county use guest workers, though she said before hiring foreigners, companies must advertise the jobs to American workers.

The Trump Organization has a long history of using foreign guest workers.

In that time, Trump businesses requested and received government approval to hire foreign laborers for more than 2,100 positions. »
