WASHINGTON (Reuters) -The Trump administration will enforce laws that require foreign workers have proper authorization to be in the United States, the White House said on Friday after immigration authorities raided a Hyundai facility in Georgia.

"Any foreign workers brought in for specific projects must enter the United States legally and with proper work authorizations," said White House spokeswoman Abigail Jackson. "President Trump will continue delivering on his promise to make the United States the best place in the world to do business, while also enforcing federal immigration laws."
