Yesterday, we brought you a story about immigrants who have lost their legal status to live and work in the U.S..

The Trump administration ended a program for half a million people from Haiti, Cuba, Nicaragua and Venezuela.

That's put the squeeze on Kentucky businesses who've employed hundreds of people through those programs.

And that program.

DHS issued a notice that they were ending.

The fee and parole program was very concerning.

There was a state issued and then ultimately the Supreme Court at the end of May did decide that the program could be ended.

So during that the period of that time, several businesses were communicating with us that people were resigning out of fear, and so they weren't showing up in the workforce.

And that was a big concern for businesses.

And now that the program has ended, many people have resigned.

And that's created obviously, concern for the workers.

But it has also created some challenges for businesses who must replace those jobs.

We ultimately want the Congress and the federal delegation to continue to allow for legal immigration and this important segment of the workforce.

This week, the Louisville Chamber and unnamed businesses are meeting with Kentucky's Congressman to discuss this very issue.

The chamber says manufacturing and logistics companies are seeking other legal pathways for workers they've come to rely on.

It's unclear just how many Kentucky workers are impacted.

The union representing workers at Louisville's GE Appliance Park said nearly 200 of its members were on the program.
