Comments On the Comprehensive Immigration Reform debate

This blog focuses on the Form I-9 employment eligibility verification process, employer I-9 employment eligibility verification compliance practices, and ICE enforcement of I-9 employer violations and employer sanctions.

I appreciate all visitors to my blog.  I encourage and invite your comments.  However, please understand the I-9 employment eligibility verification blog is NOT a forum for comprehensive immigration reform (CIR) debate.

The blog is about existing I-9 employment eligibility verification law and employer sanctions compliance.  It is an area of immigration law that I practice. The I-9 compliance is part of my immigration law practice. I have no position per se on one side or the other in the comprehensive immigration reform debate.  I do, however, have opinions of particular aspects of the debate and legislation.

Comprehensive immigration reform has become a difficult matter to discuss.  The CIR bills introduced in Congress are very long, complicated and often difficult to understand.

There are many forums on the Internet for the discussion of “illegal aliens”, “illegal immigrants” or “undocumented immigrants”; as variously labeled based on one’s position. I welcome your comments, but please offer your comments on the I-9 employment eligibility verification process and employer compliance aspects of immigration law and policy. Thank you.
