A recent operation near Florida State University arrested half of the 200 construction workers on site, part of a wider pattern of immigration enforcement affecting the construction industry. This has serious implications for an already strained housing supply, as immigrant labor accounts for a significant portion of the workforce. Experts believe that many of those arrested are undocumented, which raises concerns about the sustainability of labor in construction. The fear surrounding such raids can lead to further issues even for those legally residing in the country, affecting the overall market.
