Immigration Debate Intensifies as Nevada Faces Economic Impact

The upcoming election could drastically alter immigration policies, affecting Nevada's workforce and economy.

Immigration is a key issue in the presidential election, with Nevada's diverse population making it a focal point for both parties.
The Baker Ranch in Nevada relies on immigrant workers through the H-2A visa program, highlighting the state's dependence on foreign labor.
Proposals from Trump and Harris present starkly different paths: mass deportations versus pathways to citizenship for undocumented immigrants.
Both parties support expanding guest worker programs, though each has differing views on border security and asylum policies.
Potential economic consequences of mass deportations could mirror the 2008 financial crisis, severely impacting Nevada's 24-hour economy.
