The proposal as stated puts the illegals being given a chance at a work visa *behind* those who have gone through the proper method. They have to register, pay a fee, and then leave after a period of time. In the interim they can no longer be paid sub-minimum wage.
Effectively this *raises* the cost of employing those people, which makes their labor less attractive to employers.
IMO this all hangs on enforcement against employers who afterwards elect to employ illegals.
