93.7 million actually.
(the number is growing)
Most politicians who oppose amnesty try to take the sting out of it by saying they favor expanded legal immigration.
The problem with that is, as you say, 93.7 million people not working. No one has been willing to speak up for them. No one has been willing to say that, not only should illegal immigration be brought to near zero, we need a moratorium on legal immigration too until the economy recovers, and until the people now here have had time to fully integrate.
Immigration policy should always serve the interests of citizens. I’ve never heard a politician say that out loud and I don’t know if any of them even believe it.
