Recent data indicates that approximately 1.2 million immigrants have exited the US labor force, a trend attributed to the immigration policies implemented during the Trump administration. This significant decline is affecting various sectors of the economy, particularly in California, which has historically relied on immigrant workers. Reports suggest that the crackdown on immigration, including increased deportations and ICE raids, has led to a self-deportation phenomenon where migrants are leaving jobs out of fear and uncertainty. As a result, the US is facing worker shortages, prompting concerns about inflation and economic stability.
