From NPR.

Republican Governor Kevin Stitt of Oklahoma says his state would be devastated if people without legal status suddenly disappeared. Stitt says he supports issuing work visas to people without legal status who are currently employed.

In an interview with NPR’s Steve Inskeep, Stitt says his constituents have told him “‘Governor, Trump won. He won on the issue of border security. We absolutely need to vet people coming into our country. We absolutely need to get criminals out. But they also whispered to me and they said, I run a construction company. I own a company that does this. I’m a farmer and I have some illegals that work for me, and they’re like family.’”
