Many immigrants bring an entrepreneurial spirit and a wealth of skills that lead to job creation, not job losses. According to research from the National Foundation for American Policy, immigrants in the U.S. are almost twice as likely to start a business compared to native-born citizens. These immigrant-owned businesses, both large and small, provide millions of jobs. Companies like Google, Tesla, and eBay were founded by immigrants or their children, showing the profound impact that immigrants can have on the American economy.
