I believe, the Immigration program intends to make up for the lower TFR in US, so that there is a consistent rate of increase in the population.
Until now, immigrants who were not highly skilled (with graduate degrees) were needed to fill the space, but increasing levels of automation and AI, its dangerous for US to not tweak its immigration program to factor this in. If immigrants coming to US have no job prospects, it can only lead to more abuse of immigrants and / or rise in crime.
Immigration need not be prioritized based on the "hot job market", but needs to be prioritized based on those who can remain employed with increasing levels of automation and AI.
