We study the effect of immigration of foreign-trained, registered nurses (RNs) on the employment and wages of US-trained RNs. We use the "area" approach and study effects of immigration in labor markets defined by the state. We find substantial evidence that immigration by foreign-trained nurses increases the supply of nurses and that this increase in supply is associated with a decrease in annual earnings. Estimates suggest that a 10 percent increase in supply due to immigration is associated with a one to four percent decrease in annual earnings.
我们研究了外国培训的注册护士（RN）移民对美国培训的RN就业和工资的影响。我们采用“区域”方法，研究在州定义的劳动力市场中移民的影响。我们发现大量证据表明，外国培训护士的移民增加了护士的供给，而这种供给增加与年收入下降有关。估计表明，由于移民导致供给增加10%，与年收入下降1%至4%相关。
