This is the reason why the I-9 should not be THE document for verifying that someone is legal and able to work. There is widespread fraud despite the Chamber of Commerce saying it is sufficient. It is the reason why E-Verify should be made mandatory nationwide as Lamar Smith is trying to do.
But what would be the Constitutional basis for making it mandatory at the federal level? Would this infringe on the 10th amendment? I would support Lamar Smith’s bill if someone could explain the Constitutional basis for it.
