What economists say about JD Vance's claim that immigrants drive up housing costs

America's two vice presidential candidates agreed Tuesday night that America is in the midst of a housing crisis in which too few homes and steady demand have led to soaring costs.

But Sen. JD Vance of Ohio and Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz presented radically different views of how the country got there — and how to fix the problem.

Housing is one of many issues Vance, the Republican nominee, believes are rooted in the arrival of undocumented migrants in America.

Walz, the Democratic nominee, said the reasons for America's housing crisis are more nuanced.
