But I think I'll help the anti-immigrant folks out here...why can we not enforce labor laws regarding the undocumented?

We can. We do. That's what's causing much of the problem.

Asylees are allowed to remain in the U.S., but they can't lawfully work. Which means that they typically can't provide for themselves. Which is what puts such an enormous burden on the social services of the communities they're living in. They can't pay for their own housing or food or clothing, so public and charitable systems end up getting crushed.

The various Temporary Protected Status (TPS) declarations that Biden has made are an effort to solve that - TPS receivers can work.
