It would be similar to what Permanent Residents who do not become citizens. They work, they pay taxes, and they can collect on social security and (I believe) medicare after X years worked. But they can't vote.

So yes, it'll be "taxation without representation" but there is recent precedence. And it'll be voluntary, they can chose to apply for the guest worker program or not and accept the positives and negatives.
