Ok, I'm confused. Is this left over from previous admin? Wouldn't any employer who used eVerify be guilty of the same thing?

but failed to demand a similar document from U.S. citizen workers.

Huh? US citizens have green cards??

If a cop stops me and wants to see my driver’s license,

but does not want to see all the passengers’ driver’s licenses,

or does not ask for all the driver’s licenses of nearby pedestrians,

Do I have a Justice Department case?

Yeah, it’s a stretch ...

Foreign legal residents are not US citizens. They do not have full constitutional rights.

Every gun owner knows this when you fill out the background check form as required by the Feds.

I guess the Feds need to take that question out.

Of course they couldn’t demand the same thing as US citizen workers. We don’t have green cards. We were born here.

What an upside down country we’re living in these days.

A green card is not required to work in the USA - the business owner seems clueless if my understanding is correct about what transpired in this case, Us citizens do not need green cards AND foreign citizens do not need green cards if they have an L, TN, or other such valid work visa. Green cards are only one type of work visa that foreigners can use.

Seems to be the outcome leftover investigation.

Proof of employment eligibility does not require presenting a green card, though that can be used. Seems that the employer went above and beyond in asking for one specifically.

This is of course a petty prosecution. An employer should be free to require whatever they think they should even if beyond the legal requirement.

Exactly why they should make it a felony to hire illegals. Not only would the illegals self-deport, it would also prevent Treasoncrats from punishing people with BS like this.

"Is this left over from previous admin?"

It has been this way since Reagan signed the Immigration Reform and Control Act of 1986(IRCA).

Employers have to fill out the I-9 form on all employees and there is a long list of documents that can be used.

Here is the Wiki page on the I-9 It has a list of all the documents.

The I-9 form is required to be filled out - or on record with the employer already - from all employees, citizens and non-citizens. Maybe they never asked the citizens to fill them out.

Why are citizens included? How else is it verified you are either a citizen or can otherwise legally work?

Easily fixed by all with the employment application as shown here for anybody hired. When I was working I recall one of the questions on the application was always, “are you a U.S. citizen?” If you hire gardeners/babysitters/home help of undetermined citizenship maybe pay them in cash, but there is a downside if they get hurt on the job. My sister in law always determines citizenship and requires business licenses from help she employs, as if they get in an accident on the job she doesn’t get sued into oblivion and their business owners covers the injury/damage.

Now that we have a real government, the new Justice Department needs to step in and cancel this nonsense.

At what point can the Feds arrest for obstruction?
