US Sees Negative Net Migration for First Time in Nearly 100 Years Amid Trump's Border Crackdown

“Since January 2025 when President Trump took office the government’s monthly household survey, officially called the Current Population Survey (CPS), shows an unprecedented 2.9 million decline in the foreign-born population — naturalized citizens, lawful permanent residents, long-term temporary visitors, and illegal immigrants,” the Center for Immigration Studies reported on Thursday.

“The total foreign-born population declined 2.9 million from January 2025 to July 2026. This follows an 8.3 million increase in the prior four years during the post-Covid border surge,” CIS added, which was during President Joe Biden’s time in office.
