Native-born US workforce totals dipped — as immigrant labor figures rose: report
The American labor force is becoming less American.

Newly-released data from the Center for Immigration Studies is sounding the alarm on the declining US labor force, by showing fewer native-born Americans are joining the workforce — with men representing the largest decline seen in decades.

“The share of working-age (16 to 64) U.S.-born men not in the labor force increased from 11 percent in April 1960 to 17 percent in April 2000, and to 22 percent in April 2024,” the analysis found.
 
“Among ‘prime-age’ U.S.-born men (25 to 54), the group most likely to work, the share not in the labor force was 4 percent in April 1960, 9 percent in 2000 and 12 percent in 2024.”
