It is H.R. 3262. and it is called EVAA. the Employer Verification Accountability Act. Mr. Speaker. one of the things we are hearing in our district that is such a problem is illegal immigration. the impact that illegal immigration has on jobs. on the economy. on our district. And this is one of those pieces of legislation that is designed to help us have another tool to fight illegal immigration. Very simply. what it does is this: The 1986 Immigration Enforcement Act puts in place fines for employers who knowingly and willingly hire illegal immigrants to work in their businesses. This act would prohibit them from negotiating those fines down and require them to pay the $10.000 fine per violation. I would like to commend this legislation to the body and invite the Members to join me cosponsoring H.R. 3262.
