US Workers Account for All Job Gains in 2025

(Liberty Nation)—Over the last several years, dating back to before the COVID-19 pandemic, a trend has emerged in the labor market: a divergence between employment levels of natural US citizens and foreign-born individuals. The gap widened substantially during the previous administration, favoring newcomers. In the early days of President Donald Trump’s second term, however, American workers have gained all the new jobs this year.

US Workers Taking Foreigners’ Jobs

For years, both sides of the aisle have shrieked that foreigners are taking Americans’ jobs. Well, no more. According to data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics, US-born employment levels have soared by 2.079 million, and employed foreign-born workers have declined by 502,000.

Employment prospects appear to be bright for both American men and women, too. Job growth had been flat for both genders after the US labor market fully recovered from the public health crisis by late 2022. However, once the calendar flipped to 2025, payrolls surged by about one million for US male and female workers. Meanwhile, the government’s data indicates a significant decline in the number of employed foreign male and female workers beginning in March.

Over the years, Liberty Nation News has spotlighted this development in the national labor market. One point that requires mention is that the Bureau of Labor Statistics categorizes foreign-born individuals as both legal and illegal immigrants. However, defenders of former President Joe Biden insisted that illegals were neither skewing the data nor taking jobs away from the American people.
