Trump's recent announcement about mass deportations is set to significantly disrupt key industries in the US, notably construction, agriculture, and hospitality, which rely heavily on immigrant labor.
With 21.5% of construction workers reported as non-US citizens, the deportation initiative threatens an already critical labor shortage, likely escalating home prices and further complicating the housing market.
The agriculture sector stands vulnerable, with nearly 300,000 undocumented workers, particularly in crop production, whose absence could jeopardize food supply and exacerbate existing labor crises.
Hospitality and leisure industries also face challenges, as 13.2% of their workforce is not made up of US citizens, potentially leading to staff shortages and increased operational difficulties.
