(Parker Puls | Bloomberg via Getty Images)South Korea’s foreign minister is considering a trip to the U.S. to meet with the Trump administration after hundreds of South Korean nationals were arrested in Georgia this week at an electric vehicle battery plant.
The plant is a joint venture between Hyundai Motor Group and LG Energy Solution.
ICE released video of what officials say is the largest single-site enforcement operation in the history of the Homeland Security Investigations.
Georgia officials have touted the Hyundai Metaplant America site as a game changer for the state.
But a Kemp spokesperson, who was not named, said in a statement issued to local media that the state will always enforce the law, including federal immigration law.
