Just weeks into President Trump's historic second term focused on mass deportation and putting America First, a supposed Republican governor is stabbing American workers in the back by demanding states be allowed to import cheap foreign labor for corporate cronies.
Oklahoma Governor Kevin Stitt, who clearly missed the memo about the 2024 election results, is now pushing for states to have the power to issue work permits to migrants for jobs at Boeing and in construction – sectors where millions of American citizens are looking for good-paying work.
This is exactly the kind of Chamber of Commerce, corporate-first thinking that President Trump's MAGA movement was built to destroy. While Trump, alongside border czar Tom Homan, works tirelessly to secure our southern border and remove illegal aliens who are stealing jobs from Americans, Stitt wants to roll out the red carpet for more foreign workers.
Betraying the Base
The timing couldn't be worse for this RINO betrayal. As President Trump implements his America First agenda with mass deportations and the completion of the border wall, governors like Stitt are essentially working for the other team – prioritizing corporate profits over American paychecks.
"Whatever the inevitable damage to citizens and workplace investment," as Breitbart correctly noted, Stitt doesn't seem to care about the working families who voted Republican expecting their jobs to be protected, not handed over to foreign workers willing to accept lower wages.
This is the swamp mentality that Trump has been fighting for nearly a decade. Corporate interests love cheap labor because it keeps wages low and workers desperate. Meanwhile, American construction workers, mechanics, and factory employees watch their earning power evaporate as employers choose foreign workers over citizens.
Trump's Vision vs. Corporate Puppets
President Trump's second-term agenda is crystal clear: secure the border, deport illegals, and put American workers first. Every single day, his administration is working to reverse the damage done by four years of Biden's open border catastrophe.
Governors like Kevin Stitt need to decide: Are they going to stand with President Trump and American workers, or are they going to keep doing the bidding of their corporate donors who want endless cheap labor?
Patriots across Oklahoma should be asking their governor one simple question: Why are you more concerned about Boeing's profit margins than your own constituents' paychecks?
