Mr. President. the employment verification system under the bill outlines the documents that an employer must check to determine the immigration status of his employees if he wants the benefit of the affirmative defense. Employers who follow the verification procedures then will have an affirmative defense if undocumented aliens are found in their employ. The employers of four or more who fail to follow the verification procedures !or all employees are then presumed to have knowingly hired any undocumented aliens found in their employ. The presumption then can be rebutted if the employer presents clear and convincing evidence to the contrary. That is in the statute.
