Biden's open borders drives immigration growth
NBC New York:
Immigration accounted for all U.S. population growth in 2022-23, first time since 1850
The U.S. immigrant population grew by 1.6 million people while birth rates dropped, though the share of those who are foreign-born is slightly below the share in 1890.

The immigrant population grew by 1.6 million people between 2022 and 2023, reaching a record high of 47.8 million in 2023, according to the analysis. That’s about a 3.6% population increase, the largest annual growth since 2010, the institute stated in its report.
However, the foreign-born percentage of the U.S. population is 14.3%. That puts it slightly below the 14.8% registered in 1890, MPI said.
Nearly three-quarters (73%) of immigrants in the U.S. are legally present and almost half are naturalized citizens, according to MPI.
In addition to naturalized citizenship, those with legal status include green-card holders (legal permanent residents), refugees, those who have been granted asylum, had long-term visas as students, temporary workers or other categories.
U.S. birth rates reached a historic low in 2023, falling 2% from the previous year, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. The fertility rate fell to 54.5 birth per 1,000 females of ages 15-44 in 2023, down from 56 in 2022.

Birth control must be greater now than at any time in the past. The immigrant population growth was the result of Biden's open borders policies with many of the new citizens coming from poorer countries in South America and Africa. Some states did a better job of controlling their borders than others. While California has been losing population from its citizens, it has been trying to replace them with imports. New York is another liberal state that is losing population. Texas has gained populations from other states as people flocked to its robust economy.
