...No? Everything you said remains accurate even if you replace immigrants with illegal immigrants. Particularly your entire last paragraph is what people have an issue with illegal immigrants for, and why a large number of legal immigrants/H1-bs have issues with illegal immigrants. Did you know it can take as long as 15 years for an H1-b to get a green card? Did you know an H1-b can have their application rejected and then have to return home? >People are anti-immigrant because they see immigrants are others, as competition who has no right to compete with them, or similarly, they seem them as another people encroaching on their territory. Issues of legality concern the state but they do not concern the individual anti-immigrant.
