My analysis is that Republicans want immigrants to be marginalized so they are more able to take advantage of them for labor. If someone was a legal immigrant or had protections, it's harder to pay them low wages, have no medical or workers comp, hire and fire at will, avoid payroll taxes, and unsafe working conditions... all of which are very dear things to Republicans.
