Good.
Well, Obama was prosecuting businesses who refused to hire illegal aliens. Be interesting to see what happens when the Biden DOJ weighs in on this.
This.
Excellent!
Bout time somebody did something about this. Sad that itβs taken this long for a leader to step up, but Iβm grateful.
DeSantis is walking the walk, not tweeting the tweet.
I’ve kept I-9’s on every employee hired since 1988. No one has ever audited them. This is what government should be focusing on, not LGBQWERTY and other outlandish schemes.
Good-
This should have been done when E-VErify first came out.
Greg Abbott to follow suit in 3,2,1. “Me,too!”
It’s about damn time.
IF DeSantis can get this to spread across the USA-—HE IS GOLD.
I was a payroll supervisor for a fairly large company. FORM I-9 HAD TO BE filled in with proper documentation or I refused to put new hire on payroll. Prior supervisor had been very lax.
Pissed off alot of remote managers of operations-—BUT it was MY SIGNATURE on quarterly & ANNUAL reports to state & IRS...AND workmen’s Comp Insurance reports. ...NOT theirs.
One manager sent me a W-4 for kid—18—with 9 exemptions. I called—EXPLAIN, this, LUCY-—
He said the kid was single, but he was sending $$$$ back to Mexico for family...
I explained to him that he could NOT exempt income taxes on persons who were NOT in the USA-—family he was supporting in USA—OK—BUT NOT in MEXICO-—
I opened up a hornet’s nest. He fought with me. Company had a LABOR RELATIONS group on retainer. I Called them. They agreed with me. I got it in writing on their letterhead.
Manager was still pissed at me, but I told him to clean up the rest of his records on the rest of his crew or else. Meanwhile, I put the first offender I caught on payroll at Single-1.
They can put down 8 exemptions without pressure-—but at 9, I HAVE to send a copy of the W-4 directly to the IRS.
I would bet money that at least 80% of companies hiring illegals have not even attempted to get I-9 form filled out.
Meanwhile-—Biden is trying to declare HE can give them ALL SPECIAL status to work in USA.
desantis for president 2028... π
Funny how easy it is to enforce the law. Other governors would try it
Business’s where I live do their best to avoid using e-verify. Mostly construction company’s. No surprise.
Lots of lip service paid to it here by politicians but no action on it. Gotta give Florida credit for what they are doing.
A few well publicized trips to any construction site would go a long way here ...
If Congress would actually allow E-Verify to be implemented without all the constraints designed to make it useless we could cut out probably 90% of the illegal immigration. Make the database accurate (easily done if allowed) and instantly deport any illegal who trips it during the mandatory hiring check. If you find an employer end running it then $100,000 fine and 90 days in jail. Make it too painful for an illegal to work and they'll stop coming.
To quote JoeTatoe, “This is a big f_cking deal!”.
Outstanding!!!
