We need E-Verify


Now that Donald Trump will soon be the president of the United States, it is time that Congress pass E-Verify and send a clear message to the world that American jobs are for U.S. citizens and to those immigrants with work visas.

Roy Beck of Numbers USA said, “We’ve been in the wilderness, and overnight we are not anymore.”  It is time for Congress to do the compassionate thing and pass a mandatory E-Verify bill.

Today, E-Verify is:
  • Used nationwide by more than 600,000 employers of all sizes
  • Used at more than 1.9 million hiring sites
  • Joined by about 1,400 new participating companies every week
  • One of the federal government’s highest-rated services for customer satisfaction.
