"And especially in North Carolina, when small businesses are 50% of your workforce and also farms and agribusiness are the number one economic driver in your state…. This is just impacting people, again, who don't feel safe to go to work, even if they are U.S. citizens. And it's just it's hit everybody everywhere in every sector."

"Vice President JD Vance claimed last week, ‘Illegal immigrants [are] taking houses that ought, by right, go to American citizens.’

“For years, the MAGA right has insisted that deporting undocumented workers would free up jobs, lower prices, and restore an imagined Leave It to Beaver-esque past where ‘real Americans’ can thrive.

In other data released this week, the ratio of #JobOpenings to #unemployed workers in April declined to prepandemic levels after peaking at more than two to one in early 2022. #Employers aren’t #hiring very quickly, but they’re not laying many people off, & #workers are less likely to quit their #jobs than they were in 2019.

The drop in #LaborForce participation came largely from those between the ages of 20–24, declining from 72.4% in April to 70.8% in May.
