The Republican party is aggressive towards both unions and illegal migrant labour. It is a paradox in my view.

Agriculture is already unionized.
Meet Cesar Chavez and the UFW.
Republicans hope to bust up this and similar organizations that would provide a living wage. It is right to work laws in Republican states, and the use of undocumented illegal workers that are being used to bust unions or making them illegal all together. They establish a national wide defacto standard and they can make unions illegal on the federal level, which is really sad. These no mind Republicans fight like rabid dogs protecting the 2nd amendment, but think nothing of crushing the protections in the 1st amendment every opportunity they get.
