Although the article mentions illegal immigration in passing, it is about LEGAL immigration and legal immigration, by itself does not drive down wages.
We have lots of empirical data in the three fields mentioned - meat packing, building, landscaping. Wages in those fields are down substantially from what they were. Why did wages in those fields drop? Illegal immigration increased.
