News Source:- The CEO of the US Chamber of Commerce, Suzanne Clark, has said more immigration to the US is needed to ease inflation and tackle America’s labor shortages. Ms Clark has urged the Biden administration to ease US immigration policies in order to double the number of legal immigrants.

During a recent press conference, Ms Clark said: “We need more workers. We should welcome people who want to come here, go to school and stay. That is a place the government could be particularly helpful and we do believe it would be anti-inflationary.”

Clark claims that ramping up immigration to the US would help to combat supply chain disruptions, which she said are ‘at the heart’ of an inflation spike in the US. In particular, Ms Clark feels that increased immigration would help tackle an increasing shortage of truck drivers.
