On the recordMay 16, 2006
Here is Professor Harry Holzer at the same committee hearing, three out of five witnesses, most of them pro-immigration witnesses. He is an associate dean and professor of public policy at Georgetown. He says: Now, absent the immigrants, employers might need to raise those wages and improve those conditions of work to entice native born workers into those [construction, agriculture, janitorial, food preparation . . . ] jobs. I believe when immigrants are illegal they do more to undercut the level of wages of native born workers. So I think he also would agree with the Senator from North Dakota.
