FLORIDA AG PUSHING GOVERNOR TO MANDATE E-VERIFY USE
From CCH:
Florida Attorney General Bill McCollum (R) sent a letter to Governor Charlie Crist (I), on July 6, 2010, asking him to direct state agencies to use the federal government’s E-Verify system in the hiring of state workers. E-Verify is a web-based system that allows an employer, using information reported on an employee’s Form I-9, Employment Eligibility Verification, to determine the eligibility of that employee to work in the United States. “As one of Florida’s largest employers, state government should lead by example. I am requesting that you use your authority to direct state agencies under your supervision to use the E-Verify system as soon as possible to verify the employment eligibility of all new hires upon employment,” said the Attorney General. In his letter, McCollum also requested that Crist direct the Florida Department of Management Services to conduct a study on requiring all contractors who do business with the state to use E-Verify for all their employees.
Note that McCullum is a Republican candidate for Governor and Crist is an independent candidate for the US Senate.
