Title: 17% Of Job Market Owned By New Immigrants - Immigrants in the Workforce, State by State and Industry By Industry
Post by: HAPPY2BME on January 08, 2016, 02:11:46 am

A new interactive tool from The Pew Charitable Trusts compares immigrant labor force to U.S-born workers.

Shift­ing demo­graph­ics na­tion­wide are chan­ging the face of Amer­ic­an em­ploy­ment. Im­mig­rants make up 13 per­cent of the pop­u­la­tion and 17 per­cent of the work­force, but their em­ploy­ment pat­terns con­trast with those of their U.S.-born coun­ter­parts across in­dus­tries and states. Un­der­stand­ing these dif­fer­ences na­tion­ally and with­in each state is vi­tal for poli­cy­makers as they con­sider strategies to boost their eco­nom­ies and de­vel­op their work­forces. To help give them the clear pic­ture they need, The Pew Char­it­able Trusts pro­duced first-of-their-kind data on the like­li­hood of im­mig­rant work­ers be­ing em­ployed in 13 ma­jor in­dus­tries, com­pared with U.S.-born work­ers, in all 50 states and the Dis­trict of Columbia.

Pew’s on­line in­ter­act­ive tool builds on these data to com­pare the work­force dis­tri­bu­tion of im­mig­rants re­l­at­ive to U.S.-born work­ers across all states and with na­tion­al fig­ures.  Fol­low­ing are some key takeaways that can help guide ex­plor­a­tion of the in­ter­act­ive and in­form strategies for poli­cy­makers to make use of the data:

This is from the Bush years, which were the highest rates in sheer numbers for illegal aliens and visa abuses in the history of the US. 

This is just one example of job loss and illegal job market manipulation allowed by our Congress and Senate to go on during Bush's tenure, which has of course been continued during Obama's.

Immigration attorneys from Cohen & Grigsby explains how they assist employers in running classified ads with the goal of NOT finding any qualified applicants, and the steps they go through to disqualify even the most qualified Americans in order to secure green cards for H-1b workers.
 
 See what Bush and Congress really mean by a "shortage of skilled U.S. workers." Microsoft, Oracle, Hewlett-Packard, and thousands of other companies were running fake ads in Sunday newspapers across the country each week.
