The Real Cost of Trump’s Immigration Policies

A recent report by Michael Sainato from The Guardian highlights how President Trump’s latest immigration rules are creating serious issues for both workers and businesses in the United States. Published on July 29, 2025, the article shows the real-world effects of cutting work visas and permits, affecting many people’s daily lives and the overall economy.

Immigration Policy Changes

Recently, President Trump’s administration removed legal protections from more than 1 million immigrants, ending key programs like CHNV humanitarian parole. This program allowed immigrants from Cuba, Haiti, Nicaragua, and Venezuela to live and work legally in the U.S. As a result, industries such as food processing, hospitality, construction, and caregiving—heavily dependent on immigrant labor—are facing serious challenges.

Personal Impact Stories

Kentucky: GE Appliances Factory

Over 125 immigrant employees lost their jobs at a GE Appliances factory in Kentucky when their work permits were revoked in early 2025. Their sudden removal disrupted production and created confusion and stress among their co-workers. Workers and union representatives now fear more job losses in the future.

Michigan: Kraft-Heinz Plant

At a Kraft-Heinz facility in Michigan, experienced workers with over 20 years of service abruptly lost their jobs after their work permits were canceled. Remaining employees are now working exhausting 12–14 hour shifts, covering double workloads and even facing canceled vacations. The intense schedule raises serious concerns about workers’ health and safety.

Economic Impact

Experts warn these immigration restrictions could have severe consequences for the U.S. economy. A recent study estimates that losing immigrant labor might cost between $70–94 billion each year. This impact extends beyond just immigrant-held jobs, putting millions of American-born workers’ positions at risk due to widespread industry instability. Sectors like agriculture, childcare, and manufacturing are particularly vulnerable.

Even some officials within Trump’s administration acknowledge the crucial role immigrant workers play in maintaining food production and other essential services. Without these workers, everyday Americans may soon face higher prices, reduced availability of services, and longer waits.

Final Thoughts

This report shares personal experiences of individuals directly affected by these policy changes and clearly demonstrates their broader economic implications. The Guardian’s article serves as an important reminder that immigration policies deeply influence not only politics but everyday life and economic health for all Americans.
