It has been part of the civil rights debate for many years before I came here. There is no question about that. Information about a job applicants alien status is not relevant to employer sanctions. only the employees illegal alien status is what we are talking about with employer sanctions. If an applicant can show citizen status. the employer will not be subject to sanctions for hiring the applicant. However. neither will the employer be subject to sanctions if he hires an applicant who can show legal alien status. That is what the bill says. That is what is here. Therefore. knowledge of an applicants alienage will not cause an employer who has no desire to discriminate against illegal aliens to begin to do so. But I assure my colleague that I will keep that in mind and embrace that as we go on into the hearing process in future legislation. I thank the Senator from Michigan.
