Those were the people whom we sought to protect. Those were the people who employer sanctions were designed to protect. in order to assure that there might be a disincentive against those employers who were unscrupulously dealing with them. who were dealing with criminal rings to bring them in. This was the genesis of this. In order to be fair about it. to recognize that there were employers who were decent. who wanted to deal with people properly and decently. and who did not want to really make them work with substandard wages. knowing that they were illegal aliens. I designed at that time. a graduated penalty approach.
