The bill eliminates the increased civil penalties for employers to tell them we are not- going to put up any more with chronic violators of the laws that say you cannot hire people that are not citizens or are not here legally. Those enhanced civil penalties are gone. Why? Because the American people wanted them gone? Because the Jordan Commission said that they ought to be gone? Of course not. Because a lobbyist for an employer that hires illegal aliens came down here and said. "Mr. GINGRICH. you Republicans do your job and get us off the hook." And that is exactly what they did. They also added into the bill gratuitous language that eliminates the antidiscrimination provisions in the current law.
