Trump's 2nd Immigrant Deportation Policy Ahead...What's good and bad?

[Anchor]
President-elect Trump has announced that he will immediately launch a massive deportation of illegal immigrants if he takes power.

Immigrants bring crime and job conflict, but they have supported the economy by supplying labor, so what about the benefits and benefits of immigration restrictions?

On his first day in office, Trump vowed to block the border and begin the largest deportation of illegal immigrants in U.S. history.

[Donald Trump / U.S. President-elect] Millions of people from prisons and mental hospitals are coming through the border. Look at the crime rate soaring. I'm going to kick him out quickly.]

Immigration restrictions are also popular in the United States because immigrants commit crimes and cause job conflicts.

Earlier, the U.S. House of Representatives passed a bill to expand deportations requiring the detention of illegal immigrants accused of theft and home invasion.

But there are concerns that the deportation of immigrants, who used to be a cheap source of labor, could trigger inflation.

U.S. citizens' responses to immigration restrictions are also mixed.

[Harold / United States Citizen: We're losing money in everything from healthcare to prison because of illegal immigrants. He's stealing, he's committing drug crimes.]

[McCala / American citizen] If we let immigrants go, the pyramid structure of the labor market that the United States has built up so far will collapse.]

There is also a sharp conflict within Trump's camp over the issue of allowing overseas technical personnel to move through H1-B professional visas.

President Biden's decision to exempt 1 million illegal immigrants from deportation is also a mountain for the next president, Trump, to overcome.

Economists predict that the second Trump administration's immigration restriction policy will reduce labor supply, but overall supply and demand in the U.S. labor market will remain balanced as labor demand gradually decreases.
