Trump Grows Job Market with Americans, Undoing Biden’s Migrant EconomyJohn Binder 8 Jul 2025
President Donald Trump is growing the nation’s workforce by filling open jobs with native-born Americans, rather than importing more migrants to take such work, Bureau of Labor Statistics data reveals.
“Compared with the start of the year, foreign-born employment is down by over half a million workers and American-born employment is up by over two million,” Breitbart News Economics Editor John Carney reported.
And while hundreds of thousands of native-born Americans are scoring jobs in Trump’s economy, the all-important labor force participation rate rose from 61.4 percent to 61.8 percent, with the highest level ever of native-born Americans employed.
The Heritage Foundation’s E.J. Antoni made a similar note, mainly that compared to former President Joe Biden’s migrant economy — where nearly all net job growth went to foreign-born workers — Trump’s economy is delivering nearly all net job growth to native-born Americans.
“What a difference a president makes: last Nov, the 12-month change in jobs among native-born Americans was -1.1 million but for Jun it was +1.7 million; truly remarkable…” Antoni wrote on X.
