Nonsense. E-verify is a great tool for businesses and state and local governments to verify that their employees are legally eligible to work in the USA.

It only takes a minute and it relieves the employer from being responsible if an illegal person slips through.

Only pro-amnesty people are against e-verify because they know it works.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Except if the employee is president of the United States of America. Down on “The Animal Farm”, presidential piggies get to live in a E-verified failed farmer's house.

“Nonsense. E-verify is a great tool for businesses and state and local governments to verify that their employees are legally eligible to work in the USA.”

Then why is it being made mandatory? If it’s such a great tool, then businesses will adopt it voluntarily.

“It only takes a minute and it ‘relieves the employer from being responsible’ if an illegal person slips through.”

Why is the employer at all responsible in the first place? This is wrong. An employer should not be held responsible, the person who broke the law should be held responsible.

That the business could be held responsible when they hire someone with falsified documents is completely wrong. The one who is responsible is the person who falsified documents.

“Only pro-amnesty people are against e-verify because they know it works.”

Again, the administration wants to simply tax businesses to do the dirty work that they refuse to do.

What use is E-Verify, when,

1, you can’t fire people who have E-Verify fail.
2, they can’t be deported, per Obama’s ED.
3, it doesn’t catch ID fraud.

So, no, E Verify doesn’t work at all. The only thing it does do is make it very clear that employers, and only employers are responsible, if they defy the administration and dare NOT to use E-Verify when hiring.

Not true. I oppose it because there are better ways to drive illegals out of the country and because I don't want the government keeping databases on the people capable of controlling their commerce. It's invasive, it's immoral, and it's an illegal warrantless search for a criminal who has not exhibited probable cause.

Want something more effective? Try a bounty system with stiff penalties for false arrest. The illegals would flee in a heartbeat.
