A Republican congresswoman is warning President Trump that his immigration enforcement is hurting his own supporters.
Representative María Elvira Salazar of Florida said the crackdown has "gone too far." She warned that Hispanic voters who backed Trump in 2024 now feel betrayed.
Salazar is running for reelection in a heavily Republican district. Her comments put her to the left of Trump on his signature issue.
The remarks signal growing concern inside the GOP. Republicans won a larger share of Hispanic voters in 2024. Party leaders worry that tough immigration policies could push those voters away in future elections.
