Except that if the illegals begin "working legally," they'll have to be paid, I assume, some kind of minimum wage, thus leveling the playing field for Blacks.

Thus opening the door for a whole new flood of illegals that employers can pay below the minimum wage.

They would still add to the supply of labor, thus exerting a downward pressure on wages. It would just be unable to go below the minimum.
