I think. that the system is working. President Bushs Executive order requires contractors of the Federal Government to use the system. It is only right that the Government do business with companies that are not violating our immigration laws. We dont need to let somebody bid on a contract and submit a low bid because they are able to use lowcost illegal labor and defeat the bid of a legitimate American contractor who is using legitimate labor. paying insurance. paying retirement benefits. paying decent wages. I have had a personal example in the last few weeks in which a businessman told me his company has been losing bids to an outofState corporation.
