There's another BIG sub-issue in the immigration debate.

Blue collar workers are feeling their wages being squeezed by illegals.

Employers say the illegals will work harder and longer, but it's also true that they'll work cheaper.

It's a big issue now with the boom in home construction, remodeling, and landscaping. Everybody's hiring illegals.

They can't put illegals into union jobs, the unions won't let them.

But employers don't like unions anyway.
