If those are good documents on what they paid. 19 percent of the employers paid less than the wage that they had promised on their applications. Any bill that the Congress sends to the President must remedy this problem. The Labor Department should have the same authority to enforce the rules under this program as they have to enforce workplace standards and the minimum wage. and they should have the same authority that the Immigration and Naturalization Service has to ensure that employers do not hire illegal immigrant workers. That means giving the Labor Department authority to enforce the rule where there is reasonable cause to believe that they have been broken. We permit the enforcement.
