  • At a consultation on July 1, Marks denied initiating the controversial TCN request.

  • She said discussions about the MOU had been confused with her separate March 2025 proposal to recruit skilled workers.

  • A US Embassy note, however, states that Marks proposed receiving up to 10,000 people on March 5, 2026.

  • Marks said Jamaica was approached on January 2, 2026, to consider facilitating such people’s removal from the US.
  • To make it clear, the TCN requests originated in the United States... I noticed that there were all kinds of suggestions that I originated a TCN. Now I’m good at some things, but I’m not that good that I could dictate US policy.
    — Audrey Marks, Jamaica Cabinet Minister, speaking at the National Corporate Consultation on Workforce Alignment and Jamaica’s Economic Competitiveness
