• Ms. Ansari and other members of Congress introduced a bill to investigate how immigration policies starting in early 2025 will affect the U.S. economy over the next 40 years.
• The Congressional Budget Office would lead a study to see how these policies change the American workforce, specifically looking at farm workers, healthcare staff, and scientists.
• The report would examine how mass deportations might change tax revenue, consumer spending, and the survival of small businesses across the country.
• The study would also look at how these policies affect public safety and whether a fear of deportation changes how people interact with their communities.
• To get an accurate picture, major government agencies like the IRS and the Department of Homeland Security would be required to share their data with the budget office.
