Abstract
Description
PPL Policy Briefs provide concise summaries of policy-relevant academic research for policy makers and the public. This brief explores the Covid-19 pandemic's influence on employment in industries with various concentrations of legally resident and unauthorized workers. Snapshots of the nation and of the Northeast (the region of the country that was initially the hardest hit by the virus) reveal that industries in which certain types of immigrants were disproportionately represented experienced some of the sharpest increases in unemployment in the immediate aftermath of the March "shutdown" due to Covid-19.
