Extends the E-Verify mandate from private employers with 25+ employees to all private employers, so broader state requirement to verify work authorization and more immigration enforcement.
Beginning on July 1, 2026, a private employer shall use the E-Verify system to verify a new employee’s employment eligibility as required under paragraph (a).

Status: Failed
Why the model tagged it this way: The bill expands the E-Verify requirement to all private employers (removing the prior 25-employee threshold) and updates the compliance certification accordingly, directly affecting the employment-e-verify subtag under immigration-enforcement. No provisions address firearms, transgender issues, abortion, or other immigration-enforcement subtopics.
