The Latin American economy faces potential instability due to the proposed immigration policies under Donald Trump’s U.S. initiative. The plan, which emphasizes stricter border controls and reduced migrant inflows, could disrupt labor markets that rely heavily on Latin American workers. Remittances sent back to countries in the region may decline significantly, affecting household incomes and local consumption. Economists warn that reduced migration opportunities to the United States might hinder poverty alleviation efforts in several Latin American nations. Additionally, industries in the U.S. such as agriculture, construction, and hospitality, which depend on immigrant labor, could face operational challenges. The broader economic ripple effects include slowed regional growth and increased pressure on social systems in origin countries. While the policy aims to prioritize domestic employment, its cross-border consequences highlight deep economic interdependence between the U.S. and Latin America.
