Why the model tagged it this way: The bill mandates E-Verify participation by state contractors (with contract bans and debarment), all private employers (with state agency enforcement via licenses), and political subdivisions (with employee termination penalties) to verify new hires, expanding state and local use of the program for immigration enforcement. No other listed topics are substantively addressed.
