You did see where it says net increase and legal immigrant didn't you?
It did not say Every hire or All illegals.
Since I've been there, we've had a net increase of 5 employees. It would have been a lot more, but we lost everyone in Oklahoma when we lost one of our biggest clients due to some underhanded dealings (the school board president steered the new contract to a company run by his brother-in-law) and the other basically stopped buying all AV and IT products due to budget cuts. Since we never did non-gov/edu business in Oklahoma like we do in Texas, that pretty much killed our business up there.
That said, I still do not think that every new job has gone to either an immigrant or illegal.
