Pretty much right on, Spiffor.
The Big Business right, the socially left, Big Labor, and assorted Libertarians generally favor as open an immigration policy as possible, favor guest worker programs, and favor some sort of amnesty.
Social conservatives and rank & file union members generally favor clamping down on illegal immigration, oppose amnesty, and generally oppose guest worker programs.
These opposed groups are split between the parties. The Republican party includes Big Business, Social Conservatives, along with some Libertarians and rank & file union members. The Democrats includes the Socially Left, Big Labor, and other rank & file union members.
