Experts say higher wholesale vegetable costs and an economic slowdown in Texas could be signs that Trump’s immigration policies are hurting industries.
After projections that Donald Trump’s mass deportations would negatively impact the American economy, the nation is seeing a jump in wholesale vegetable prices and slowdowns in industries that rely on immigrant workers.
Economic measures that are trickling out are leading some to point to the administration’s immigration crackdown, along with tariffs, as at least partly responsible for the slump in some economic sectors and for rising prices.
The latest comes from the Bureau of Labor Statistics, which reported Thursday a whopping 38.9% increase in wholesale dry and fresh vegetable prices from June to July, the biggest since March 2022.

That’s so weird. Who could possibly have predicted this?
If only there had been signs, or even a warning of sorts! 😞
