The reason why this became an issue is that the National Labor Relations Act does not carry with it a fine unless an employer Is ordered not to engage in particular conduct and then violates that order and then contempt citation is available. That still is a remedy available under the act. In giving weight only to the vindication of the Labor Act. the decision in this particular case and others like it ignore the equally important. and in this area obviously ignored position is of immigration. that we are giving people an incentive. a welcome. a point of view that is inconsistent with their being here illegally. The other argument raised in favor of this policy is. well. employers will be tempted to exploit illegal aliens. But let me go through exactly how fallacious that argument is. Nothing in this amendment takes away the obligation under State law for an employer to pay an employee for the time that that employee works.
