Is immigration the solution to our falling birth rate?

The fertility rate in the United States has been trending down for decades, and a new report shows that another drop in births in 2023 brought the rate down to the lowest it’s been in more than a century.

There were about 3.6 million babies born in 2023, or 54.4 live births for every 1,000 females ages 15 to 44, according to provisional data from the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s National Center for Health Statistics.

Still More Room to Grow: Immigrants Can Reverse the U.S. Population Decline and its Economic Consequences

In 2024, the United States continues to face significant demographic challenges. Propelled by falling birth rates, the U.S. population is rapidly aging and steadily declining. In turn, the country is experiencing economic and social pressures caused by labor shortages. Fortunately for the United States, the regular influx of working-age immigrants has helped the U.S. slightly alleviate this challenge. However, the country must increase its annual immigration levels to reach its full potential.

In “Room to Grow,” a 2021 white paper, the National Immigration Forum proposed a methodology that showed that the country needed a 37% increase in net immigration levels over those projected for fiscal year 2020 (approximately 370,000 additional immigrants a year) to prevent the U.S. from falling into demographic deficit and socioeconomic decline.

Some just are relegated to letting whatever happens happen. Very ill informed and selfish.
500 million is a number that has many years of study. It's no random number.
Those who don't want to see. Never will. I'm not too worried bout those folk. Originally Posted by winn dixie

How about creating an environment Of The People, For The People, By The People that allows them to Go Forth and Multiply while enjoying their unalienable rights, that among them are Life, Liberty and The Pursuit of Happiness. That could be a thing again. It still does not even need a Department of Happiness to work.

You would still be able to donate any quantity of YOUR OWN FREAK'N MONEY to Other People's Countries. Maybe even tax deductible at that.
