As long as they keep following the rule they stated before that was something along the lines of "If we do an immigration raid and happen upon other non-targeted illegal immigrants in the process, they will be deported as well" and are doing as many raids as they can without letting up, I don't really have a problem with emphasizing some industries over others, as long as they eventually move into the soft-exempted ones.
I do have a problem with outright telling those industries they will not be prosecuted.
For one thing, it is arguably aiding and abetting or conspiracy to prepromise pardons and non-prosecutions(I know it was widely done by previous Presidents)
For another, it gets them to not only keep their current illegal workers, but they'll probably actually hire more now that they have even cheaper illegal workers who have been let go from prosecuted industries.
