David Dyssegaard Kallick

David Dyssegaard Kallick is the director of the Immigration Research Initiative (IRI), a New York-based think tank that studies the implications of immigration on the economy. His research highlights the significant contributions of immigrant workers to various sectors, particularly in Florida, where a substantial percentage of the workforce in construction and service industries are undocumented or hold temporary work permits. Kallick has been vocal about the economic repercussions of mass deportations, arguing that such actions would not only harm immigrant communities but also lead to adverse effects on the broader economy, including job losses for American workers.
