The mass deportations planned by Donald Trump could be more costly than anticipated.

Analysts warn that such measures would have severe consequences for the U.S. economy.

Key sectors like agriculture and construction rely heavily on migrant labor.

In 2022, approximately 8.3 million migrants were employed in the U.S., according to the Pew Research Center.

This figure represents nearly 5% of the country’s total workforce.

However, the impact of mass deportations is even greater in specific industries, according to the American Immigration Council.

“Construction and agriculture would lose at least one in eight workers,” the organization states.

In the hospitality industry, one in 14 employees could face deportation.

The effect would be even more pronounced in certain trades, such as masonry, roofing, and painting.

More than 30% of workers in these fields could be affected due to their immigration status.
