US citizens who apply for a job will need prior approval from Department of Homeland Security under the terms immigration bill passed by the Senate this week.

American Civil Liberties Union pointed out that the DHS's Employment Eligibility Verification System (EEVS) is error plagued and if the department makes a mistake in determining work eligibility, there will be virtually no way to challenge the error or recover lost wages due to the bill’s prohibitions on judicial review.

Even current employees will need to obtain eligibility approval from the DHS Within 60 days of the Immigration Reform Act of 2006 becoming law.

"EEVS would be a financial and bureaucratic nightmare for both businesses and workers," said Timothy Sparapani, ACLU Legislative Counsel. "Under this already flawed program no one would be able to work in the U.S. without DHS approval - creating a ‘No Work List’ similar to the government’s ‘No Fly List.’ We need immigration reform, but not at this cost."

The act allocates US$400 million for the implementation of the EEVS, but the Congressional Budgeting Office estimates the system to cost in excess of a billion dollars.

Border Security and Immigration Reform
The talk must stop. We must secure our borders now. A nation without secure borders is no nation at all. It makes no sense to fight terrorists abroad when our own front door is left unlocked. This is my six point plan: (more...)

Bump for what? So more simple people can be duped by this misleading, shoddy ass "news" article?

The "I-9 system" is the current employment eligibility verification system that has been in place since the enactment of the Immigration Reform and Control Act of 1986 (IRCA), which made it unlawful for employers in the U.S. to "knowingly" hire employment-ineligible workers. Under this system, all employers are required by law to verify, within three days of hire, new employees' documents that establish their identification and employment eligibility. Employers may accept any combination of specified documents (listed on the reverse side of the Form I‑9) as long as the documents appear genuine on their face and appear to correspond to the employee presenting them. Employers that violate the law are subject to penalties known as "employer sanctions."
In so many words, this was ALREADY A LAW. There's no `approval' about it. You run the names to make sure the person is actually who they say they are.......the same way some of you hypocritical fucktards would run background checks on people you would want to babysit YOUR CHILDREN.


I knew people were stupid, but good lord..... I guess thats propaganda for you. As long as its for the "right reasons" and the ends justify the means, then it must be OK to treat people like fucking idiots.
