Senate passes immigration reform bill
Indiana
businesses that repeatedly knowingly hire illegal immigrants would face
one of the toughest penalties in the nation under legislation the
Indiana Senate passed Tuesday night.
Senate Bill 580 would
suspend state business licenses of employers who, on three separate
occasions, knowingly hire undocumented workers. The legislation would
require all Indiana employers to use E-Verify, a federal electronic
system, to confirm their employees are, in fact, legal workers.
The Republican-controlled Senate voted 37-13 to pass the bill.
