The United States is on track to see negative net migration for the first time in at least five decades as a result of the Trump administration's crackdown on migrant invasion and efforts to deport criminal illegal immigrants from U.S. communities, says a news report.
"We may be dealing with — get this — negative net migration to the United States in 2025. That would be the first time there is negative net migration in this country in at least 50 years. We're talking about down from 2.8 million in 2024," says CNN's chief data analyst Harry Enten.
