Inmates ... Asylum ... yadda yadda yadda ...
That’s the law! As if that mattered.
Boy!
Just wait until McConnell or Boehner finds about this! They’re really gonna get mad and do something about it!
Should we tell Bush?
e-verify and I-9 should be mandatory
There certainly are penalties (still) on the books for not verifying eligibility; they have to toss those rules first before they attack companies for following them...
Okay, was the fine because they selectively chose who to get I-9 from? Should have gotten them from all to avoid charge of discrimination. Besides, the law says all. That they chose only those they thought might be illegal, suggestions discrimation. Shame on them. Any lawyers or fellow company owners that read this differently?
Ping.
Spelling it out once more for these a-holes but I do believe the only thing they get from it is a good laugh.

I’m not understanding this at all. I-9s (Homeland Security doc# OBM1615-0047) have been a mandated element of business records since 1986. A list of documents that establish identity and work eligibility is given to each hire candidate (list A, list B or List C) who makes his/her own selection of what original documents to present. The employer doesn’t make up the list, DHS does. Why is this meatpacker being singled-out for complying with Homeland Security/IRS law? And how is it NOT discrimination against citizens to allow illegals to have job preference? (is the DOJ action a form of affirmative action for illegals?)
The employee is supposed to be the one who picks out the form of ID from list A or list B and list C. It says right on the I-9: "Employers cannot specify which document(s) employees may present from the Lists of Acceptable Documents, found on the last page of Form I-9, to establish identity and employment authorization."
Sooooo glad I retired in 1999. The gvt was just starting the I-9 program. I remember thinking this would take care of the illegal problem. Naive me :)
The problem this company ran into was that they didn’t do I-9s for everyone. If they had, this wouldn’t be a thing. They picked and chose based on presumed legal citizen status and that’s a no-no in today’s world.
We have many more pressing concerns, of course, but that won’t stop the Left from going after stuff like this.
That’s just stupid
A meat packing plant. Well that means they are hiring Somalis. In other words, muslims......
What happened to e-verify???
I think you have pointed out the catch in all of this stuff. You cannot use good logic for your actions and instead are forced to go the whole way with whatever the costs.
Time to put all the democrats to death, especially the ones running sanctuary cities. Subparagraph B, section iv.
(iv) encourages or induces an alien to come to, enter, or reside in the United States, knowing or in reckless disregard of the fact that such coming to, entry, or residence is or will be in violation of law; or
(v)
(I) engages in any conspiracy to commit any of the preceding acts, or
(II) aids or abets the commission of any of the preceding acts,
shall be punished as provided in subparagraph (B).
B.
(iv) in the case of a violation of subparagraph (A)(i), (ii), (iii), (iv), or (v) resulting in the death of any person, be punished by death or imprisoned for any term of years or for life, fined under title 18, or both.
Citizens arrest???
Going to need a BIG posse for that, hoss. I doubt there is one big enough available, anywhere. I know there isn't one available in Philadelphia.
actually from the article it appears they had 2 policies which was the problem.
