The presence of immigrant workers in the labor market can lead to a general decrease in wages, as they are often willing to work for less money than native-born workers. This is because immigrants often have fewer opportunities to find work in their home countries, so they are more willing to take lower-paying jobs in order to be able to stay in the United States. Additionally, many immigrants are not as familiar with the U.S. job market, so they cannot negotiate higher wages than native-born workers.
