Obama Administration to Implement Bush Program Targeting Illegals
The Wall Street Journal reports, "The Obama administration said Wednesday it would implement a Bush-era program aimed at cracking down on federal contractors that hire illegal immigrants." The program will require employers to "check whether employees are entitled to work in the U.S. through the government's E-Verify system, which compares names and Social Security numbers with a government database." Illegal workers are then supposed to be fired. "The Obama administration also said Wednesday it would end a similar program that is unpopular with the business community: the so-called no-match program operated by the Social Security Administration."
