Economists suggest that increasing immigration can help reduce inflation by expanding legal channels for temporary workers and admitting more family and employment-based immigrants. Polls show that Americans prioritize the issue of inflation over immigration. Research indicates that higher legal admissions can deter illegal entry. Recent economic news highlights the strong demand for labor. The decline in immigration due to Trump administration policies and the pandemic has contributed to a labor shortfall. Immigration can boost the supply of labor, control inflation, and improve real wages.
