Trump's immigration plans could exacerbate America's demographic challenges, leading to an aging population and a decreasing workforce, raising issues for economic growth.
If immigration were to fall to low levels defined as 350,000-600,000 net migrants per year, the US population could drop by 4% by the end of the century.
Alan Berube stated that the effects of Trump's immigration policy might create a significant population demographic shift, resulting in 57% of the working-age population being 65 or older by century's end.
The potential demographic shifts caused by reduced immigration could lead to a population that is older and fewer in number, straining the support for older individuals.
