Currently, yes. But I think that as time goes on you get N+1/N. Where the illegal immigrants are replaced by H1/L1 visa holders. As one of the recently fired employees said, she, a Mexican, was replaced by a Mexican with a nonimmigrant visa. The longterm solution would be to go back to her country and apply. In the meantime, she'll probably go to another employer. But I think many are hoping and waiting for asylum to be part of the immigration overhaul and so far that doesn't look likely.
