Summary
Many conservatives believe that the Trump administration’s strict anti-immigration policies will increase job opportunities for U.S.-born workers. However, new research by Economic Policy Institute economist Ben Zipperer shows the opposite. His analysis reveals that mass deportations would result in a net loss of jobs — nearly six million — with over 40% of those losses affecting U.S.-born workers. Industries like construction and child care would be hit especially hard. Zipperer’s report, titled “Trump’s deportation agenda will destroy millions of jobs,” highlights the broad economic harm such policies would cause.
