E-Verify Should Be Made Mandatory And Universal


"A northern Idaho senator is trying for a fourth year to toughen punishments for businesses that employ illegal workers, against opposition from the dairy and construction industries that say this should be a federal issue. At the heart of the disagreement: E-Verify, the currently voluntary federal system that lets businesses check on a worker's status," the Associated Press reported. "Sen. Mike Jorgenson, R-Hayden Lake, is pushing to require Idaho employers to use the system to root out illegal workers he says cost Idaho millions of dollars. Those found guilty of knowingly hiring illegal workers would face fines of up to $50,000 and the loss of their business licenses. Jorgenson has the backing of the Federation of American Immigration Reform, a group trying to convince U.S. Congress to reduce immigration."
