“Losing the workers would devastate our companies, our industry and our economy.”‘The math is just not there’There is evidence that foreign-born construction workers help keep the housing market in check. “Immigrant construction workers in Sun Belt metros like Raleigh, Nashville, Houston, and San Antonio have helped these cities sustain their housing cost advantage over coastal cities despite rapid growth in housing demand,” the authors wrote. Undocumented workers would likely flee ahead of any national deportation effort, Hetrick said, even though many have been in the U.S. for well over a decade.

In three U.S. states, you'd need to spend six figures a year to live comfortably in retirement — far more than in most others, according to a recent GOBankingRates analysis. In contrast, retirees in West Virginia need just $58,190 a year — the lowest of any state. Over a 30-year retirement, the difference in savings needed between Hawaii and West Virginia would be over $1.25 million. A 20% cash buffer was added to this total to ensure retirees could live "comfortably," according to the study. Here's a breakdown of the three states where living comfortably will cost more than six figures, per GOBankingRates' calculations:

Still, Socal said a Trump administration wouldn't have much flexibility to dismantle or scale back the law without change from Congress. The IRA extended enhanced subsidies that made ACA health plans more affordable for millions of households through 2025 — a provision Harris plans to make permanent if elected, her campaign said. A Democratic House or Senate would likely block any of Trump's sweeping changes to Medicaid, according to Altman.

For Abu Fares, one of hundreds of thousands prevented from returning to their homes, Sinwar’s death is just a continuation of a brutal war. Palestinians say they remain skeptical over whether Sinwar's death will shift Israel's war, which has laid waste to swathes of Gaza. Omar Al-Qatta/AFP/Getty ImagesAround 70% of Palestinians killed by Israel’s strikes are women and children, according to the Hamas-run Government Media Office (GMO).
