Study Examines Economic Impact of Low-Skill Immigration via Visa Lottery
A study by researchers Michael A. Clemens and Ethan G. Lewis published in the American Economic Journal examines the economic impact of low-skill immigration through a randomized visa lottery. The findings indicate that the current cap on H-2B visas is insufficient to meet demand, and that allowing more low-skill immigrant workers could enhance production and investment in U.S. firms without reducing employment for American workers.
