Mr. Speaker. some of the studies that I have seen. the people that get hurt the most by having illegal immigrants working are the people at the lower end of the wage scale. because those are the people taking the jobs that would have been taken by people who are legal citizens of this country. people who waited in line. people who took the classes on citizenship. Now all of a sudden they want to be able to take a job and there is somebody who is taking the job for a couple of dollars less. Those are the ones that are hurt the most by this process of what is going on.
