The final piece of “the wall” will need to be harsh enforcement of E-Verify with medieval punitive enforcement of the laws when there is a violation. The onus will be placed on businesses as much as anyone else to avoid hiring illegals. This of course should have been done years ago, but the globalist infestation has rotted us from within for far too long. Now it ends.
A case could be made that any employer who hires somebody and does not use E-verify is negligent in filing the tax forms for new hires. The IRS should be checking every I9, W2 and W4 form to see if e-verify was used. If not, send ICE to verify the employee while the IRS fines the employer for negligence.
Small businesses should be scared to death of the gestapo powers of the IRS in a way they may not be afraid of ICE. The IRS hired thousands of new employees to enforce the Obamacare mandates. When the mandates are cancelled, these IRS workers can be shifted to do this e-verify double check and fining of lax employers.
I have no idea what e-verify checks other than a valid SS# and name combination. If it doesn’t already, it should be enhanced to verify the SS# doesn’t belong to a dead person, is not already in use at another employer more than 20 miles away from the new employer, is not being used to claim disability or SS benefits, and the age of the SS# holder is appropriate to the type of job applied for. Our entire lives leave an electronic trail in government databases, so there is no excuse for e-verify to fail in spotting ID theft like this.
