Original Note:
The post misreads the chart's data. In 2020, the U.S. had 50.6M immigrants, legal and illegal. 22% of them, not of the total population, were illegal. The U.S. had 331M people in 2020, hence: - 50.6M (15.3%) were immigrants (legal and illegal). - 11M (3.3%) were illegal. https://www.visualcapitalist.com/share-of-illegal-immigrants-across-9-developed-countries/ https://www.census.gov/quickfacts/fact/table/US/PST040224#PST040224
