Trump's Immigration Crackdown Raises Fears Among D.C. Restaurants

Imagine the police checking if businesses are following the rules about who they hire.

This is happening in Washington D.C. restaurants.

Immigration agents are showing up and asking for paperwork.

Some restaurant owners are worried because many of their workers are immigrants, and these checks might scare them.

The government says they are targeting those who have committed crimes.

But restaurant owners fear it will cause staff shortages.

Some workers are now afraid to go to work.

The restaurant association is giving training on how to handle these situations.
