So immigrants don’t count as people, or have babies?
The birth rate for immigrants in america is still quite positive, and has more than offset the low birth rate from ‘non-immigrants’.

The trend is clear. The outliers from 2024 onward (which are pretty big outliers) are likely due to data not being curated correctly. The administration would be to blame for that. The US is faring better than most other western nations specifically because of immigration, so the political environment will likely have a negative downward pressure on that benefit.

Births for immigrants are not counted separately. Again, the birth rate is the topic (which includes immigrant births). Granted, all kinds of residents have births outside of hospitals, but that's a tiny minority that is not counted.
This focus on immigrant vs non-immigrant is more noise in the wrong thread.
