*IF* gov't had made this law MANDATORY, wouldn't this give them a way to FINE the illegal employers ??

Unfortunately no. Even if the program is mandatory, the law is the same and LEO's will still have a hard time prosecuting employers. Employers are not document fraud experts and the court precedents already set reinforce this.

I'm just saying *if* this law read employers MUST verify SS # (at time of hiring), anytime illegals were found working with false SS#'s, then the employer could be fined.

Really no 'documents' to check here...... ONLY that the SS # matches the name/dob in the SS database.
