By requiring MANDATORY e-verification of the legal status of every employee an employer of illegals could no longer play dumb about illegals working for the employer of the illegal, because the employer of illegals was required to have have checked on the legal status of every employee. If and employer of illegals is caught with an illegal on the payroll, they would be in deep dodo. Being able to remove or suspend the business license of repeat offender employers of illegals is the most powerful tool to have in your arsenal and is the one thing that employers of illegals would fear the most and would think long and hard as to whether they want to continue hiring illegals. With these laws enacted in every state the jobs magnet for illegals would dry up so fast it would make your head swim. And whether you agree or not drying up the jobs magnet is the ONLY way we are ever going to stop the illegal Mexican invasion.

First of all, Mexicans only make up about 30% of illegals, all Latinos make up about 40%. Immigrants account for one in seven workers in the US and half the growth of the workforce since 1990. As the number of foreign born workers has increased from 13 million to 21 million over the past decade, people from Mexico and Central America accounted for about 40 percent of the increase.
Increased immigration explains low wage growth in US
Not even half of the problem has been addressed!
