They are driving down wages, but that is also because they are easily exploited and not about to turn to any authorities for redress.

What would agriculture, food service, domestic services, gardening and construction look like in this country without undocumenteds doing the grunt work for sub-minimum wages without benefits?

‘They’ are not driving down wages. Employers are not raising wages enough to hire anyone at a legal wage, let alone a wage that can be lived on. If wages went up, consumer spending would go up, the economy would improve.
