Sen. Marco Rubio, R-Florida, one of the authors of the Senate immigration reform bill, Monday announced an amendment by a GOP senator that will make it a criminal offense to use a fraudulent immigration document.
Many undocumented workers currently use counterfeit green cards in order to find work. The amendment by Sen. Mike Lee, R-Utah, makes that a crime and also the use of any other fraudulent immigration document a criminal offense. Lee also offered an amendment that makes use of a false passport a crime.
