No jobs for US citizens without Homeland Security approval
Submitted by Canada IFP on Sat, 2007-05-26 18:00.Americas | United

US citizens who apply for a job will need prior approval from Department
of Homeland Security under the terms immigration bill
[http://frwebgate.access.gpo.gov/cgi-bin/getdoc.cgi?dbname=110_cong_bills&docid=f:s1348pcs.txt.pdf]
passed by the Senate this week.
American Civil Liberties Union pointed out that the DHS's Employment
Eligibility Verification System (EEVS) is error plagued and if the
department makes a mistake in determining work eligibility, there will
be virtually no way to challenge the error or recover lost wages due to
the bill’s prohibitions on judicial review.
Even current employees will need to obtain eligibility approval from the
DHS Within 60 days of the Immigration Reform Act of 2006 becoming law.
"EEVS would be a financial and bureaucratic nightmare for both
businesses and workers," said Timothy Sparapani, ACLU Legislative
Counsel. "Under this already flawed program no one would be able to work
in the U.S. without DHS approval - creating a ‘No Work List’ similar to
the government’s ‘No Fly List.’ We need immigration reform, but not at
this cost."
The act allocates US$400 million for the implementation of the EEVS, but
the Congressional Budgeting Office estimates the system to cost in
excess of a billion dollars.

Atheist n A person to be pitied in that he is
unable to believe things for which there is
no evidence, and who has thus deprived himself of
a convenient means of feeling superior to others.

And what happens to all the companies that have no employees for the
couple of years it's going to take to certify everyone? Halliburton,
which is given an immediate 25 year extension, takes over everything?

[shrug] They go out of business. As you indicate below it is for a
greater good.

Because that would be honest.
