Summary

This quote suggests that various research findings consistently indicate that the presence of inexpensive overseas labor negatively impacts the wages of both American workers and legal immigrants. The implication is that when foreign labor enters the market and offers their services at lower rates, it creates a competitive environment that drives down wages for domestic workers and those who immigrated legally. The quote highlights the adverse effects of this competition on the earning potential of workers already residing in the United States.
