Families across the country are already struggling to find — and afford — childcare. Today, the American Immigration Council released a new report showing how President Trump’s mass deportation agenda threatens to push this fragile system to the breaking point.
Immigrant Workers and the Childcare Crisis: What’s at Stake for Families and the Economy [[link removed]] reveals that immigrant workers make up 1 in 5 childcare workers nationwide . More than half of these workers are noncitizens, while a third are undocumented — meaning ramped up enforcement could remove the very people who keep childcare afloat.

The report includes firsthand stories from childcare providers and parents facing the severe challenges posed by immigration enforcement and visa uncertainty. In Philadelphia, one daycare center saw enrollment drop from 158 children to 97 after enforcement actions, forcing layoffs and classroom closures. In D.C., preschools have lost teachers who can no longer maintain work authorization.
Losing even a fraction of the immigrant workforce would leave families without care, push parents out of jobs, and put further stain on the U.S. economy.
