CAPS ALERT HR 2164 E Verify
Alert! HR 2164, The Legal Workforce Act Will Make E-Verify Mandatory & Permanent!
The Chair of the House Judiciary Committee, Lamar Smith (R-TX) has introduced an important bill to mandate E-Verify usage by employers.
HR 2164, The Legal Workforce Act would phase in the employment verification system over three years and make it permanent. Large employers, government agencies, and government contractors would have six months to comply. The bill would increase the penalties for businesses that fail to use the system, and it explicitly protects the rights of state and local governments to revoke the business licenses of employers who refuse to comply. We will be working hard to make sure that the bill is made even stronger so that any additional states' enforcement rights are not pre-empted.
Making E-Verify mandatory and permanent is an important step in putting millions of Americans back to work and fixing our broken immigration system. It will go after those unscrupulous businesses who purposely seek to exploit illegal immigrant labor and also help to deter identify theft.
