Summary: The commenter supports the inclusion of three specific NAICS codes (Foreign Labor Placement, International Student Enrollment, and Workforce Automation/AI Substitution) in the 2027 revision rather than deferring them to 2032. They argue that these codes are necessary to provide federal visibility into current economic forces displacing American workers.
Dear ECPC and OMB,
I support the three NAICS codes OnShoringAmerica proposed, and I want to see them in the 2027 revision, not pushed to 2032.
NAICS 561399 (Foreign Labor Placement and Management Services), 611319 (International Student Enrollment and Compliance Services), and 518219 (Workforce Automation and AI Substitution Services) were submitted shortly after the February 2025 cutoff and formally acknowledged as received. They got deferred to the 2032 cycle. That's standard process, but it's the wrong call here.
Foreign labor competition, international student enrollment pressure, and AI-driven job displacement are already reshaping outcomes for American Citizen Workers. Five years is too long to wait for the data to catch up to what's happening on the ground. Waiting until 2032 means an entire cycle goes by with no clear federal visibility into forces that are actively displacing American workers right now.
These three codes would give us that visibility. That's not a big ask. It's common-sense modernization, and it supports fair competition and opportunity for American Citizen Workers instead of leaving policymakers to work from incomplete data.
