What's funny (not ha funny) is that when Johnson-Reed Acts passed in 1924, one of the side effects was more black people moving to Northern cities to take the jobs left behind by immigrants who weren't being allowed from Southern and Eastern Europe, and prohibited immigration from Asia, among others.
Not sure there's a class of folks who want to take those jobs, nor do I speculate that wages will not remain flat for those roles. It's unrealistic and I cannot imagine they can get the votes to pass something as comprehensive as they're purporting to want to.
Wild we're gonna try to speed run that again 100 years later. What's old is new, I guess.
