Trump's war on immigrants is not translating into jobs for US-born workers These data are noisy but it seems like prime-age US-born employment rates are not any higher and may be slightly lower than those last year

It’s bc no American wants to do those jobs. They’d rather shout from the rooftops about getting rid of immigrants than actually do the jobs bc they are too lazy to do them.

Foreign-born employment is falling because of the large foreign born population reduction in recent months but also because those that remain are working at lower rates Very consistent with increased immigration enforcement making it riskier for immigrants to show up to work

If someone born & raised in this country is losing jobs to someone who moved here as an adult & doesn't speak the language, that's a skill issue

Shocking. It is as if disrupting economic projections and removing demand shrinks employment. Who knew?
