This is an extraordinary post-mortem by Tyler Austin Harper and should be very discomfiting to anyone with responsibility in higher education.

The US immigrant population generated more in taxes than they received in benefits from all levels of government every year from 1994 to 2023. The Cato study provides the first-ever 30-year analysis of the fiscal effects of immigration on government budgets. ow.ly/jy8a50Y8kM3

Well, that's terrible news. If the Bureau can only contact households twice (translates, in most cases, to 1 mailer + 1 knock at the door), the undercount will be horrendous. There's a reason there is broad, bipartisan opposition to this language in the $ bill--including from the business community.

Sad that this has to be my first post here, but the gutting of the FSRDC program is disastrous for demographic research.
