According to a recent report from the Center for Immigration Studies (CIS), all employment growth during the Biden administration went to foreign-born workers, including those in the country illegally.
The report, titled “The Employment Status of Immigrants and the Native-Born in the Fourth Quarter of 2023,” highlights that while the U.S. economy has seen modest job growth, it has disproportionately benefited foreign-born workers.
The study, published on Tuesday, shows that job growth between the fourth quarter of 2019 and the fourth quarter of 2023 is about 2.7 million jobs.
Although the study number represents working people, President Biden has claimed to have created between 12 and 13.5 million jobs. Unless these new workers have 5 separate jobs, the calculations won't quite work out.
The collapse of those 2.7 million jobs is further evidence that the Biden administration is putting the needs of foreign-born workers before the needs of naturalized American citizens.
Among these workers, 2.9 million are immigrants, both legal and illegal, while the number of working Americans has fallen by 183,000.

All employment growth goes to the foreign-born
The CIS report notes this startling fact: “The number of US-born workers has not returned to its pre-Covid 2019 level.”
While foreign-born American workers have suffered at the hands of the pandemic, they have also suffered greatly during the recovery while the foreign-born have been able to benefit from Biden's economy.
Senator J.D. Vance (R-Ohio) criticized his Senate colleagues — especially the 22 Republicans who voted yes — for passing a $95 billion foreign aid bill that benefits Ukraine and Israel, while this report proves that Americans have fallen behind.
“Biden’s economy has fallen behind native-born Americans,” he wrote on X, the social media platform formerly known as Twitter. “It's a good thing the Senate is doing nothing about border security while printing more money for foreign wars.”

The work participation rate is very low
The CIS study on employment growth shows that President Biden's slogan “build back better” applies exclusively to the foreign-born.
It also shows that the American worker seeking to support his family has diminished in number from what seems like a bygone era.
“Compared to the 1960s, when more than 90 percent of these working-age, less-educated U.S.-born men were entering the labor force, today’s rate is dramatically lower,” the CIS findings reveal.
From +90% to 75.6% according to the study.
The employment growth revealed by this study is due to Biden administration policies, which have stimulated illegal immigration and made it easier for foreign-born workers to take jobs that would otherwise go to U.S.-born workers.
America finally. It is not only the dream of President Biden, but also the dream of those Republicans who refuse to stop his destructive policies.
