Reply #41: Allowing citizenship here increases the labor supply, [View All]

And reduces the bargaining power of workers already here. Granting citizenship to illegal immigrants already here will increase the total supply of workers, period.

What does the NY transit strike have to do with anything here? Bringing up the NY transit strike is the real "straw dog" (whatever that is.)

The higher the percentage of unionized workers, the more bargaining power they have. Simply allowing more people into the country doesn't increase the percentage that are unionized. In fact, it does exactly the opposite. As a result, it undercuts the power of unions by increasing the number of potential "scabs."
