flag U.S. population growth is slowing due to strict immigration policies and low birth rates, with projections showing a 15 million shortfall by 2056.

flag The U.S. population is projected to grow by 15 million from 2026 to 2056, a 2.2% reduction from prior forecasts, due to President Trump’s strict immigration policies and declining birth rates, according to the Congressional Budget Office. flag Immigration enforcement, including mass deportations and visa restrictions, has reduced immigrant inflows, with a projected 320,000 removals over the next decade. flag Without immigration, deaths would exceed births by 2030, and population growth would stall by 2056. flag Falling fertility rates and an aging population, especially as baby boomers turn 65, are straining Social Security and Medicare. flag While green card approvals are expected to rise, overall immigration remains lower than before, contributing to slower population and labor force growth.
