Within as little as one day. an employer will know whether that person is eligible to work here in the United States. This efficient system will bring peace of mind to both employers and employees by giving definitive answers in reasonable periods of time. In addition. the Legal Employee Verification Act makes use of the technology used in our nations immigration documents. This critical security upgrade currently helps fight identity fraud and gives security officials a new tool to protect our country from those who seek to do us harm. Now this upgrade will also discourage illegal immigrants from using falsified documents to secure jobs here. giving our lawabiding workforce a fair shot at every job available. I dont fault people for wanting to come to live and work in America. Its a great place to live and raise a family. All I ask is that they do it legally. Madam Speaker. its time we get serious about enforcing our immigration and employment laws. The Legal Employee Verification EXTENSIONS OF REMARKS. Vol. 153.
