I am behind this bill 100%. I hope the fight is strong and successful for this bill as well as SB 517 and SB 623. I look forward to reading of the success of the three of them.
Mary... let me ask you this since you are so excited about his bill.
As an employer, when I hire someone...I get a copy of their driver’s license and SS card. That is all that is required as an employer. Now why is it fair for the government to come after me as an employer when I hired this person whom provided the proper paper work. The government has provided me with no database to check this persons’ SSN against so how am I suppose to know if it’s correct and legal? Yet, Obenshain wants to take my business license away??? Does that sound fair???
This bill requires the State Corporation Commission to terminate the corporate existance and right to do business in Virginia for any company whose officers and directors are convicted of a pattern and practice violation of federal immigration laws.
there are two resources out there that can help you. Firstly, DOL has a handbook "Employers Guide to Employment Law" which has picture examples of all alien cards issued over the years so you can cross check the one you see visibly in front of you.
Secondly, you can take the guesswork out by signing up for e-verify. It is an employer access point to match the details provided to you against Homeland Security data and Social Security data. This allows you as an employer to key in new hire's details and it tells you instantly if they are authorized to work or not. The website is https://www.vis-dhs.com/
