Second. the laws generally were not being effectively enforced because of strict legal constraints on investigations. noncommunication between government agencies. lack of enforcement resolve. and lack of personnel. The employer sanctions in H.R. 1510 will fail for the same reasons. The sanctions are weak. Enforcement. if present efforts of the Immigration and Naturalization Service are any guide. is not likely to be effective. The experience of various States in this country that have experimented with employer sanctions support the conclusion that the bills sanctions will not stop the influx of illegal workers. Employer sanctions are not only ineffective. they raise serious constitutional problems.
