You're either not reading your links or you are posting links to see what sticks. Immigrants in construction account for 2.2 million as per your link. Total number of immigrants in the US? 38 million. That means 5% of all immigrants work in construction. The rest? Menial jobs. So again I ask, what danger does the guy fixing computers at a computer store pose to you?
Um, I think it's you who is not reading links.
Where Construction Workers Come From
According to the 2011 ACS, the share of immigrant workers in the US labor force now stands at slightly above 16 percent[1]. The reliance of the construction industry on foreign born workers is even greater. Immigrants now account for 22 percent of the construction work force[2].
