Theoretically, it decreases the value of labor, but there's so many better solutions to that problem.
That really only applies if it's difficult for the immigrants to become citizens (ie undocumented) or if their immigration status is tied to their employment (ie h1b) that artificially drive down the value of their labor. The current setup is basically indentured servitude with extra steps.
