The construction trades are particularly hard hit by illegal aliens who move in and are eagerly hired by contractors for wages which deeply undercut the honest American worker.
It's not that Americans won't do these jobs. It's just that they can't or won't do them for slave wages and no benefits competing against guys living 30 to a house, sending their wages home to Mexico, getting paid under the table, and scamming the welfare and health systems.
This Immigration Bill will legitimize these criminals for good.
I think the main purpose of the Immigration Bill is to do away with the middle class. The leftists and RINOS imagine a utopia where 5% of the people are super-rich members of the ruling class and 95% of the people are serfs dependent on government and who have no way to work out of poverty. It used to be that a poor person could do some basic things and at least have a good chance of joining the middle class. The powers that be want to do away with the buffer that the middle class represents.

Some might dispute that - saying that illegals can't get the Trade Licenses required to work as an Electrician or a Plumber, for example. But while I was living in Charlotte NC - the illegals completely overtook residential construction work.
When I asked a friend in the home building industry how illegals could be doing wiring and plumbing, she said that they had licensed Tradesmen make the rounds inspecting the work and then signing off on it, as if they'd accomplished it.
