Companies Say Trump Is Hurting Business by Limiting Legal Immigration
Rob Hurst is not concerned with the macroeconomics of immigration. He is just struggling to keep bathrooms clean.
This summer, he has found himself on his hands and knees scrubbing toilets and tubs at Edgartown Commons, a hotel he manages on Martha’s Vineyard in Massachusetts. Five Jamaican workers who had long worked at the property failed to get H2-B seasonal-work visas.
“I’m 65 years old, but you got to do what you got to do,” he said. “We did hire contract workers, but it’s never going to be as good as people with years of experience.”
