If you thought these invaders were coming here to work, check out this headline from The Washington Times, published on Monday, May 13th., “Just 46% of new immigrants are working, census data show.”
President Biden has overseen the fastest expansion of immigration — legal and illegal — in U.S. history, but less than half of the newcomers are holding jobs, according to a report released Monday.
The Center for Immigration Studies, using Census Bureau numbers, calculates that 46% of immigrants who arrived over the past two years are employed. That challenges a key selling point from immigration advocates that the stream of newcomers is critical to the U.S. economy.
Some immigrants say they are looking for work, but most — including the elderly, children and caregivers — are out of the labor force, the report said.
“Immigration clearly adds workers to the country, but it just as clearly adds non-workers who need to be supported by the labor of others,” said report authors Steven A. Camarota and Karen Zeigler. “Those who simply see immigration as a source of labor need to understand it is also a source of school children, retirees and many other non-workers. How could it be otherwise; immigrants are people.”
The U.S. had 51.6 million immigrants as of March 2024, up 5.1 million from March 2022. That is the largest two-year increase in history. The country has netted 6.6 million foreign-born since the start of the Biden administration.
Immigrants account for 15.6% of the total U.S. population, also a record, shattering the previous high of 14.8% in 1890.
“There is a big difference between migrants and invaders”, said Thomas Robb, the National Director of the Knights Party of the Ku Klux Klan, centrally based in Harrison, Arkansas. “Immigration back in 1890, and the invasion we’re seeing today are totally different. In 1890, the White, European migrants coming to America were coming here to work, to build a better life for themselves and their families, and most of all, to build America. In 1890, we were governed over by our own people, White Europeans. Fast forward to today’s immigration, it’s not immigration at all, this is a full blown invasion of non-white people coming to America to destroy it. They don’t want jobs. Who would when our government is willingly handing out freebies to these people. Which isn’t freebies because money used to cater to these invaders is our tax dollars. If you don’t think our government is manipulative, think about this, our government is using our White tax dollars to genocide us from our God-given land. We are funding our own genocide, and many people don’t see it. This is what happens when you have non-whites and anti-white White people within your White, Christian government.”
