U.S. Population by Race/Ethnicity: 2010 (1) THE GROWTH OF THE LATINO COMMUNITY U.S. Population by Race/Ethnicity: 2010 Total U.S. Population — 309 million These projections illustrate the full impact of immigration on the U.S. labor force. Without post-2000 immigration, the U.S. labor force would actually decline slightly after about 2015 and would stabilize at just below 150 million from 2020 through 2050. With immigration at more than 1.1 million per year, the labor force would grow steadily. Post-2000 immigration adds over 40 million to the labor force by 2050. 3 Source: Analysis of the 2010 U.S. Census by the Pew Hispanic Center IFE Presentation May 19, 2011 31 31
