Deport all illegals and visa workers and indefinitely halt all future immigration, doing so would raise wages more than any other policy and tank the cost of housing. Most big cities would have a $15 minimum wage due to supply and demand. The cost of housing would drop 50%+ in some cities.Of course businesses would hate that.
We don't have a labor shortage or skills gap either, that is a myth pushed to keep the immigration flood gates open. What is the definition of "labor shortage" supposed to be anyways? Businesses will ALWAYS say there is a labor shortage and skills gap, it is in their best financial interest to do so. Every job being filled would be horrible for wages and employee treatment. My definition of labor shortage is when it threatens the ability of the US to defend itself from China, Russia, and others. We could deport every person and their descendants that are here through immigration, legal and illegal, going back to the immigration act of 1965 and we would still be fine. Businesses would hate that though.
