Of course, why else do you think corporately bought-and-paid-for dems think immigration should basically be open borders? Probably the largest anti-strong-borders people are Big Ag.
The people that actually care about the workers at the bottom of the totem pole (Bernie Sanders mostly) were strongly against such policies until the increasingly polarized nature of our politics made it untenable to be on the "left" and not pro-endless-immigration.
Don't get me wrong, I'm not generally in favor of protectionism and think our immigration system could use a bit of renovation, but anyone who pretends that low wages is just corporate America being mean and stealing profits for themselves without also acknowledging the impact of importing massive amounts of unskilled labor is being disingenuous at best.
