U.S. Hispanics, who are younger than the general population, are driving the growth of the labor force — by 2030, they will account for 1 out of every 5 workers. In interviews before and after the election, Latino men repeatedly said they want relief from the rising cost of living and more job and business opportunities.

Close to 1 in 10 people in the U.S., about 32 million people, are Hispanic males; the U.S. Latino population is nearly evenly divided between men and women. Latino males are younger than men in the U.S. overall and have a higher participation in the workforce than any other racial group.NBC News exit polls showed Trump won 55% support from Hispanic men, while a poll for Latino and other progressive groups reported he won 43%.
