A new NBER study takes a hard look at one of the most debated questions in today’s labor market: do increased immigration enforcement and mass deportations create more opportunities for U.S.-born workers?

In this episode, Steve breaks down the data behind the policy claims, explore what actually happens inside affected industries, and examine why the results challenge some of the most widely held assumptions about jobs, wages, and workforce dynamics.

For HR and business leaders, the lesson is clear: when it comes to the labor market, the truth is almost always more complex than the politics.
