I mostly agree with you on this. The Republican party represents mostly wealthy people and businesses and they sometimes like to hire illegal immigrants because of the low wages, so the Republicans don't want to do what you suggest.

I agree with your analysis. At least the republicans have a reason, the democrats? What is their motivation? Some would say compassion, others would say to increase their voter base.

Politicians work primarily for votes (or money that can be used to buy votes through advertising). It wouldn't just be the votes of immigrants, but the votes of other people who like the Democrat position on immigration.
