President Donald Trump indicated on Thursday that he was open to allowing illegal immigrants who work on farms to continue with their work in order to prevent unnecessary disruptions to farming across the country.

During a speech given at the Iowa State Fairgrounds on July 3, Trump said he was working with the Department of Homeland Security to figure out a solution for alien farm workers.
