WEST PUBLISHES STATE IMMIGRATION COMPLIANCE HANDBOOK
West Publishing has added a book on new state employer compliance laws to its library. This comprehensive book is very timely since state employer compliance laws have proliferated in the last two years and more than two dozen states now impose additional immigration requirements on their employers. The book is authored by Austin Fragomen, Careen Shannon and Daniel Montalvo who have authored a number of other successful immigration titles for West.
The book is fairly comprehensive. It includes summaries of all of the state laws as well as the text of the statutes. It also provides citations and web addresses, a helpful feature.
Many have questioned the constitutionality of these new laws. Is it not the role of Congress to regulate immigration law and not state legislatures? The new Fragomen book does discuss this question in some detail and also provides general background on recent federal enforcement efforts.
The book retails for $325 and is available here.
