Immigration crackdowns reshape the US construction workforce
Original: How immigration crackdowns are affecting the building landscape
Immigration enforcement is tightening labor supply in the building industry, where foreign-born workers make up a large share of trades like roofing, drywall and carpentry. Dealers, contractors and builders report project delays, rising labor costs and slower home construction as workers stay off job sites, prompting calls for policy changes and workforce development.
Why now: Enforcement actions are disrupting construction labor, raising costs and delaying housing projects.
