In a shocking revelation, the United States is on the brink of a population crisis as projections suggest that deaths will outpace births by 2033.
A recent report from the Congressional Budget Office (CBO) highlights a concerning trend: America's fertility rates have been on a steady decline, dropping from a peak of 2.12 births per woman in 2001 to just 1.62 births per woman in 2023.
This significant decrease in birth rates is attributed to a multitude of factors, notably a rise in women delaying motherhood and a sharp decline in illegal immigration expected in the coming years.
The CBO anticipates that the fertility rate among women under 30 could plummet to 0.79 births per woman by 2025 and further decline to an alarming 0.62 by 2055. Meanwhile, women over 30 are projected to see slight increases in fertility rates, but these changes will not be sufficient to counter the overall declining birth rate.
Despite improvements in healthcare leading to an increased life expectancy—from 78.9 years in 2025 to a projected 82.3 years by 2055—the sobering reality is that more people will be passing away than being born.
Illegal immigration, which surged to unprecedented levels under the Biden-Harris administration, has also played a crucial role in this demographic shift. While the country witnessed staggering migrant encounters along the U.S.-Mexico border—reaching about 8.5 million in the last four fiscal years—future estimates predict a significant drop, further contributing to the anticipated population stagnation.
Donald Trump, the former president, has consistently pushed for stringent border security measures, vowing to curb illegal immigration and protect American livelihoods. His promise to end birthright citizenship for children born to illegal immigrants resonates with a substantial portion of Americans who are increasingly concerned about the changing landscape of the nation.
At the same time, the report sheds light on the troubling rise of abortions in the United States, exacerbated by the retraction of federal oversight allowing states to regulate abortion laws independently. As telehealth options become widely available, access to abortion services has expanded, raising ethical questions regarding the sanctity of life that conservatives hold dear.
This confluence of declining birth rates, questionable immigration policies, and increasing abortion rates underscores a critical juncture for America.
With leaders urging a return to family values, there is hope for revitalizing the nation's demographics.
Conservatives believe it’s imperative to advocate for policies that encourage traditional family structures, support child-rearing, and reinforce the importance of life—principles that could potentially reverse these concerning trends.
As America faces this looming crisis, it underscores the urgent need for a political reckoning that aligns with conservative values and prioritizes the future of families across the nation.
