Therefore. in effort to correct these dangerous provisions. I offered amendment number 4096 which would protect employers from being liable for the illegal behavior of their suppliers and subcontractors. This amendment resembled one that was offered during the consideration of H.R. 4437. the Border Protection. Antiterrorism. and Illegal Immigration Control Act. legislation that focused on securing the border and increased internal enforcement. Offering this amendment was freshman congressman. LYNN WESTMORELAND of Georgias 8th district. I should point out that when the House debated immigration legislation in December 2005. Westmorelands amendment was so popular that it received more votes of support than that on final passage of the legislation. Though the language in the Grassley title mI amendment does not include the language in my amendment.
