Republican political fortunes could hinge on the effects of President Trump’s immigration crackdown, according to the authors of a report from the Brookings Institute. A Republican representative from Florida has written a bill she says will enable the country to cross this immigration divide, but the bill must first cross the political divide in Congress.
The authors of the report, “Macroeconomic Implications of Immigration Flows in 2025 and 2026: January 2026 update,” estimate a net migration deficit of 10,000 to 295,000 in 2025.
