http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2016/nov/23/republican-governors-victories-come-with-burdens-t/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Once thought a sure way to block illegals, the federal web-based E-Verify system was supposed to allow “businesses to determine the eligibility of their employees to work in the United States.” It doesn’t really. “We’ve got to talk about E-Verify,” Mr. Hutchinson said. “People come here for jobs. Reducing the power of that magnet reduces the cost of securing the border.” E-Verify now is riddled with holes. Even the official Department of Homeland Security website bears this proviso: “E-Verify does not provide your employer with any immigration, citizenship status or document information about you.” “A more effective system is more expensive,” Mr. Hutchinson said. “You have to check more databases to authenticate the identity of the person who presents a card. A truly comprehensive E-Verify burdens small businesses financially, but if you exempt businesses that employ fewer than 50 people, you leave the door open to fraud.”)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: Illegal Workers Trump also took a strong stance on immigration and the issue of undocumented immigrants. His policy is strict on illegal immigration; its impact will likely affect many different companies. Trump has advocated to make E-verify mandatory. (E-verify is a web based system that allows employers to verify their legality as a worker in the US. ) He has also stated that the Immigration and Customs Enforcement Agency will begin conducting more dramatic SWAT-style raids. Your employer may be implementing E-verify forcefully in the future based on President Elect Trump’s rhetoric.)
