    The Census Bureau’s Current Population Survey (CPS) shows that the total foreign-born or immigrant population (legal and illegal) was 49.5 million

At 15 percent, the foreign-born share of the U.S. population is also the highest ever recorded in American history. As the debate rages over the ongoing border crisis, this finding is important because administrative numbers such as border encounters or even legal immigrant arrivals do not measure the actual size of the immigrant population, which is what ultimately determines immigration’s impact on the country.

    Among the findings:

    - In October 2023, the CPS shows that 15 percent of the U.S. population is now foreign-born — higher than any U.S. government survey or census has ever recorded.

    - The 49.5 million foreign-born residents (legal and illegal) in October
    2023 is also a new record high.

    - Since President Biden took office in January 2021, the foreign-born population has grown by 4.5 million — larger than the individual populations of 25 U.S. states.

    - Based on our prior estimates of illegal immigrants, more than half (2.5 million) of the 4.5 million increase in the foreign-born population since January 2021 is likely due to illegal immigration. If adjusted for those missed by the survey, the increase would be larger.

    - The 4.5 million increase overall and the 2.5 million increase in illegal immigrants are both net figures. The number of new arrivals was
    significantly higher, but was offset by outmigration and natural mortality among the foreign-born already here.

    - The foreign-born population has grown on average by 137,000 a month since President Biden took office, compared to 42,000 a month during Trump’s presidency before Covid-19 hit, and 68,000 a month during President Obama’s two terms.

    - The scale of immigration is so high that it appears to have made the new Census Bureau population projections, published on November 9 of this year, obsolete. The bureau projected that the foreign-born share was not supposed to hit 15 percent until 2033.

    - The largest percentage increases since January 2021 are for immigrants
    from South America (up 28 percent); Central America (up 25 percent); Sub-Saharan Africa (up 21 percent); the Caribbean (up 20 percent); and the Middle East (up 14 percent).

    - Immigrants from all of Latin America increased by 2.9 million since
    January 2021, accounting for 63 percent of the total increase in the foreign-born.
    While a large share of the recent foreign-born growth is due to illegal immigration, legal immigrants still account for three-fourths of the total foreign-born population.

    From your source:

    "As the debate rages over the ongoing border crisis, this finding is
    important . . . ."

    Hmmm. Where is this "debate" taking place? For decades there has been
    talk in the media of "a national immigration debate." Why is there
    never a decision made as to who "won" the debate? What makes them even
    think there is a debate that rages over the ongoing border crisis? It
    seems that not only is there no debate, there is also no vote that ever
    takes place that lets the voters determine whether the Great Replacement
    is in their interest.
