Something else I'd like to point out is we're NOT saving money by having illegals do work here for lower wages than an American would.

The only people saving money are the businesses that employ the illegals.
The rest of us have to pay the cost of putting the illegal immigrant's children in our public schools, we have to teach them english, we have to provide health care for them (because they'll go to the emergency room and then never pay the bill)
In the meantime you have American citizens collecting unemployment and welfare checks.

If the illegals weren't here the employers would be forced to raise wages in order to fill those positions. We wouldn't be providing education and health care for illegal immigrants AND we would have fewer Americans living on the dole.
