If it says "Invalid number." dont hire the person or you will be in big trouble. This legislation will provide a way to clear up any problems. so if for some reason the number doesnt compute. and you say: That is really me and that is my number. you can straighten that out. The bottom line is that if we dont have a valid verification of employment. whether the individual is verified as a citizen. a temporary worker. a green card holder. or whatever the status is. if you are validly able to get employed. great. If you are not. then you wont be employed. Unless we have that kind of system. this entire thing breaks down. In the legislation Senator CORNYN and I developed. this is a critical component. and it answers one of the questions that is frequently asked: How do you know people will eventually come out of the shadows and participate in a temporary worker programor seek a green card. in any eventthat they will eventually leave the United States in an illegal status and will come back in a legal status? The answer is: With a good validation of employment. verification of employment eligibility system. nobody is going to be able to get a job illegally. So within a couple of years. it is not going to be possible to be in the United States. if you want to work. and be illegal.
