    SYNOPSIS:This bill would create the Alabama Fair Employment Act. This bill would provide that an employer who does not verify work authorization of employees through the Basic Pilot Program, a national program administered by the Department of Homeland Security, would be guilty of an unfair trade practice if it discharged a citizen or legal alien while employing an illegal laborer. The bill would also prohibit deduction of the costs of an illegal laborer as a business expense for income tax purposes. This bill would also require participation in the federal Basic Pilot Program as a condition of a state contract. A BILL
    TO BE ENTITLED
    AN ACT An act relating to labor; creating the Alabama Fair Employment Act; providing certain exceptions to the act; making certain discharges of employees an unfair trade practice; authorizing a certain cause of action; prohibiting certain compensation as certain tax deductions; requiring suspension of certain certificates of incorporation under certain circumstances; and requiring participation in certain programs as condition for certain contracts or grants. BE IT ENACTED BY THE LEGISLATURE OF ALABAMA: Section 1. This act shall be known and may be cited as the "Alabama Fair Employment Act." Section 2. As used in this act, the following terms shall have the following meanings: (1) BASIC PILOT PROGRAM. The electronic verification of work authorization program of the Illegal Immigration Reform and Immigrant Responsibility Act of 1996, P.L. 104-208, Division C, Section 403(a); 8 U.S.C. 1324a, and operated by the United States Department of Homeland Security. (2) EMPLOYEE. Any person performing or applying for work or service of any kind or character for hire. (3) EMPLOYER. Any person employing or seeking to employ any person for hire. (4) EMPLOYMENT. The act of employing or state of being employed, engaged, or hired. (5) ILLEGAL LABORER. Any person who is an undocumented immigrant in this country illegally and performing or applying for work or service of any kind or character for hire. Section 3. (a) The Legislature of the State of Alabama finds that employers in this state who use illegal laborers have systematically distorted the labor market of this state by reducing wages, adversely affecting working conditions, and evading taxes. Employment of illegal laborers should be viewed as any other illegal business practice, that is, a means to exploit others and to gain an advantage over law-abiding competitors. (b) The Legislature of the State of Alabama further finds that the United States has established and maintains a national program for the electronic verification of work authorization, the Basic Pilot Program, which enables employers to promptly and accurately verify the employment eligibility of all job applicants. Section 4. (a) This act shall not apply to any business domiciled in this state which either has enrolled and participates in the Basic Pilot Program or is exempt from compliance with federal employment verification procedures under federal law which makes the employment of unauthorized aliens unlawful. (b) The discharge of any United States citizen or permanent resident alien employee by an employer in this state is an unfair trade practice as defined in Chapter 20 of Title 8 of the Code of Alabama 1975, if, on the date of the discharge, the employer employed an illegal laborer. The discharged employee shall have a private cause of action for the unfair trade practice. Section 5. (a) Compensation, whether in money or in kind or in services, provided to any illegal laborer shall not be allowed as a business expense deduction from any income or business taxes of this state. (b) Any corporation operating in this state in violation of this act shall have its certificates of incorporation suspended. Section 6. The State of Alabama shall require, as a condition of the award of a contract or a grant to any business or enterprise, that the business or enterprise shall enroll and participate in the Basic Pilot Program. Section 7. This act shall be construed so as to be fully consistent with federal immigration law. Section 8. This act shall become effective on the first day of the third month following its passage and approval by the Governor, or its otherwise becoming law.
