Comments on Basic Pilot/E-Verify

By immigrationprof

From the National Immigration Law Center:

REMINDER: Send Comments To The Federal Government

Opposing The Proposed Rule To Make Basic Pilot/E-Verify Mandatory For Federal Contractors

DUE: MONDAY, AUGUST 11, 2008

The federal government has issued a proposed federal rule that would require at least 200,000 federal contractors to use the Basic Pilot/E-Verify program to verify all of their newly-hired employees and some of their existing employees. This will affect about 4 million employees. Although the proposed rule only applies to companies with federal contracts, mandating the use of a system that doesn’t work will be disastrous for everyone in the U.S., not just federal contractors.
