Make E-Verify permanent and mandatory
What the document says“Congress should also permanently authorize E-Verify and make it mandatory.”
E-Verify is the federal system employers use to check whether a new hire may lawfully work in the United States. It is currently voluntary for most employers. The chapter asks Congress to make it permanent and mandatory, alongside narrowing who is statutorily eligible to work.
What the document actually says“Congress should also permanently authorize E-Verify and make it mandatory.”
Congress should keep E-Verify for good. It should make every employer use it.
Employers can check if a new hire may work here. The system is called E-Verify. Most do not have to use it. The book says all of them should.
Read against the documents indexed here on August 26, 2026, and nothing was found that answers this. Nothing among the candidates concerns E-Verify. None of them authorizes the system permanently, makes it mandatory for employers, or narrows who is statutorily eligible to work in the United States. That is a record of a search, not a finding that nothing has happened: an act this site does not hold, or one that answers the proposal in words unlike its own, would not be caught by it.
