Supreme Court Backs Deportation of Hundreds of Thousands as Experts Warn of U.S. Population Decline

3 articles · Updated · NPR · Jun 27

Hundreds of thousands of migrants could now face faster deportation after the Supreme Court affirmed Donald Trump's authority, a shift experts say may deepen a U.S. population slowdown.
The warning lands as the U.S. was already aging and edging toward decline, leaving immigration as a key support for population growth and labor-force replacement.
A sharper drop in migrant numbers could accelerate that demographic slide, with the court's immigration rulings potentially reducing one of the country's main sources of population gains.
