District Court Overturns Illinois E-Verify Prohibition
A District Court in Illinois overturned the Illinois Act, which
prohibited employers from participating in E-Verify until the Social
Security Administration and Department of Homeland Security databases
are able to make a determination on 99 percent of the tentative
nonconfirmation notices issued to employers within three days. The Court
ruled that the Illinois Act was unconstitutional because it violated the
Supremacy Clause, meaning that the Illinois Act prevented the execution
of federal immigration laws. United States of America v. State of
Illinois ( C. D. IL, 3/12/09).
