E-Verify Victory in Stimulus Package

Update: Sessions and Nelson are pushing for the Senate leadership to pass E-Verify provisions. Call your Senators now and urge them to add the language!

The House stimulus bill contains some very necessary provisions requiring any business receiving stimulus money to use the E-Verify system for verifyingthe eligibility to work of people applying for jobs (i.e. so that businesses getting stimulus money cannot use illegal alien labor).

It looks as if stimulus is going to pass no matter what we do, so let's at least call our Senators to make certain that provisions mandating the use of E-Verify are kept in the Senate bill.

That is all.
