"The reality is that it would be a major burden on our country and economy to just lift millions of workers out of it. They are a part of the economy, and I don’t mind letting them stay.."

Did you read the Heritage report about what it will cost to legalize them and give them access to SS, Medicare, Welfare, etc.,? It's already costing us something like $ 20,000 per illegal family per year for health care, schools, etc., without legalizing them and giving them access to programs that legals can access.

It might be a "major burden" on their employers if "millions of workers" were "lifted out of the economy," but it would hardly be a "major burden to the country or economy" or the taxpayers.

Actually, I didn’t read the report. I should.
