He acknowledged that selling the bill to the American public at a time of double-digit unemployment would not be easy.

But he and Los Angeles labor leader Maria Elena Durazo argued that legalizing undocumented immigrants would help the nation's economic recovery by raising their wages and allowing them to spend more consumer dollars.
The reason that those wages are low is because illegal aliens for the last thirty years have bid wages down in cut throat wage competition - first against American citizens and secondly against one another while saying "It's better than what I get in Mexico", regardless of how low the wage is in America.

They are directly responsible for whatever crappy wages they get.

And Durazo and Gutierrez want to give them a raise on my back?

I think not.
