This is a quicker and less expensive route than the procedures established under title VII. of private litigation in the Federal courts. Another charge. Hawkins puts employers in a no win situation. If they hire undocumented aliens. they face prosecution under sanctions. If they play it safe and fail to hire someone who is in fact documented. they may be sued for discrimination. This dilemma best illustrates the problem with employer sanctions. It does not work and the best way to avoid this problem is defeat the bill. Another charge I have heard this afternoon. that Hawkins provides afterthefact remedies.
