Government Report Supports Trump: Illegal Aliens Do Impact Black Employment.
U.S. government data backs up former President Donald J. Trump‘s charge that illegal immigrants are impacting job opportunities for black Americans. The America First leader blasted Joe Biden‘s open border policies during the first 2024 presidential debate, stating the “20 million people” people who have entered the country illegally are “taking black jobs, and they’re taking Hispanic jobs.”
Leftist critics in the corporate media, as well as supporters of Joe Biden, claim Trump‘s remarks are racially charged. However, a House committee last year heard testimonies indicating a significant impact on the workforce from an estimated nine million illegal alien workers. The Center for Immigration Studies presented findings that U.S.-born, working-age individuals not in the labor force had risen to 44 million by April 2023, almost 10 million more than in April 2000.
A 2008 report by the United States Commission on Civil Rights supported some of Trump’s assertions, finding illegal immigration increased the low-skilled labor supply, which disproportionately affected black males, many of whom have high school diplomas or less. This led to reduced wages, lower employment rates, and higher incarceration rates among black Americans.
