The strong employment numbers are, in fact, in part a reflection of America’s central international advantage.

J.D. Vance , seen here campaigning for the Senate in 2022, talked about Friday's job numbers in a Fox News appearance on Sunday. Sen. J.D. Vance thinks he has figured out a stone that can kill two particular birds his party has been hunting. The steady increase in jobs reflected in monthly data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics — like the increase, a weekly dive into the data behind the news.

To an extent, though, this was a reversion of an existing pattern. The density of native-born Americans in the workforce — like the density of native-born Americans in the population — has trended down since 2010. The unrevised employment data for March are generally in line with where we’d expect them to be, based on the trend from 2011 to the beginning of 2020.

As a result, while foreign-born U.S. residents made up only about 4 percent of the population under 18, they make up more than 17 percent of the working-age population. That's higher than the 14 percent of the 65-and-up population they constitute. You can see that represented in a chart aired during the program on which Vance appeared. The number of native-born Americans who are retiring is far larger than the number of foreign-born residents, because the group of native-born Americans is older.
