Summary#
This bill would amend a 1996 immigration law to require that every contractor for an agency in the executive or legislative branch, and every subcontractor at any tier, must elect to participate in the E-Verify program described in section 403(a) and must follow the terms and conditions of that election.
What it means for you#
- Contractors and subcontractors working for executive or legislative branch agencies must enroll in and use E-Verify and follow its rules.
- Federal agencies must ensure their contractors and subcontractors comply with this requirement.
- For workers, this means employers covered by the requirement would use E-Verify to confirm work authorization for hires.
- No publicly available information on exemptions, enforcement details, or how the requirement would be phased in.
