What happens when you add supply of labor to a labor market?

He said "they" don't come to work but just get handouts, in which case they are not adding labor to the labor market.

But I posted something about this, immigrants from south of the border are filling in for missing American farm workers in rural areas... there's a labor deficit they are filling. Americans are not staying in those areas to be farm labor. The farming economy depends on them, and that's why no matter what dog and pony show is constantly flogged up for the media no one will really stop them from entering the US and getting work visas, or sneaking in for harvest season and working under the table.
