But absent from the Trump's report is a commitment to e-verify beyond just mentioning it -yes, I understand that there is a general provision elsewhere in the document which calls for the enforcement of laws but I am also informed that e-verify is voluntary under current law.

Just a thought. By background, Trump is the type of person who would be well-versed in the skill of holding back cards, to play at the right time. Of all of the specific components of his immigration plan, the one that would have the broadest and loudest support would be "crack down on employers". Maybe he is only hinting at this now, so that he can later make a big splash with the specifics of what he would do to those employers.

I have a hard time believing that he would listen to Sessions on everything else, yet hit employers with padded gloves. I have a gut feeling that when he comes out with the specific remedy for these types of employers, it is going to be shocking in its severity.

That could be but it also could be that Trump calculates that illegal aliens do not Vote and (or at least should not vote) and business owners do.

I have no information either way.
