This is very good news. No one should be sad over this.
Under Biden in 2024, foreign born workers were getting the vast bulk of all job gains.
Over the last several years, dating back to before the COVID-19 pandemic, a trend has emerged in the labor market: a divergence between employment levels of natural US citizens and foreign-born individuals. The gap widened substantially during the previous administration, favoring newcomers. In the early days of President Donald Trump’s second term, however, American workers have gained all the new jobs this year.
For years, both sides of the aisle have shrieked that foreigners are taking Americans’ jobs. Well, no more. According to data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics, US-born employment levels have soared by 2.079 million, and employed foreign-born workers have declined by 502,000.
Employment prospects appear to be bright for both American men and women, too. Job growth had been flat for both genders after the US labor market fully recovered from the public health crisis by late 2022. However, once the calendar flipped to 2025, payrolls surged by about one million for US male and female workers. Meanwhile, the government’s data indicates a significant decline in the number of employed foreign male and female workers beginning in March.
Of course, the timing is suspect because border crossings have tanked, and the White House is engaged in a massive deportation operation. Now that this has become commonplace, employment conditions are favoring individuals born in the United States.
