    Trump regrets taking Jared Kushner's advice to downplay the National

    | Suzanne Clark, CEO of the US Chamber of Commerce, said in January
    | that allowing more immigrants into the US would help mitigate both
    | soaring inflation and the labor shortage.
    |
    | "We need more workers," she told reporters at the time. "We should
    | welcome people who want to come here, go to school, and stay... That
    | is a place the government could be particularly helpful and we do
    | believe it would be anti-inflationary."
    |
    | Easing the path to immigration could be a saving grace for the US'
    | financial straits -- this time last year, the US would have had
    | about 2 million more workers if immigration had stayed on its trend
    | from the first half of the 2010s before reversing itself during
    | Trump's presidential term, Insider estimated, for instance.

    Does Bill Stepien advise Trump's Save America PAC endorsed candidates
    to campaign on the law of supply and demand and its impact on
    affordable family formation?
