Expert discusses how deportations could cause labor shortages for several industries
SUMMARY: Florida lawmakers passed three new immigration bills after weeks of Republican infighting, which were signed by Governor Ron DeSantis. These laws make illegal immigration a state crime, end in-state tuition for undocumented students, and allocate over $250 million for immigration enforcement. Meanwhile, President Trump’s immigration crackdown could lead to labor shortages in industries like healthcare, senior care, construction, and farming. CEO Adam Lampert warned that mass deportations may cause self-deportations, workforce displacement, and inflation in wages. Lampert suggested that immigration policy needs reform, comparing it to outdated speed limits on highways, affecting labor markets across the country.

The Trump Administration continues its illegal immigration crackdown, but it could have impacts on everyday Americans.

SUMMARY: South Florida’s weather for Sunday, March 23, 2025, reveals significant rainfall deficits, with Miami, Fort Lauderdale, and Key West receiving less than a quarter of an inch, contributing to expanding drought conditions.
