How labels work
Texas · 90th Legislature Regular Session
HB169Relating to participation of political subdivisions and contractors and subcontractors of political subdivisions in the federal electronic verification of employment authorization program, or E-verify.
Direction
Immigration enforcementemployment e verifyAI label
Requires political subdivisions to use E-Verify for all new hires and bars awarding contracts to contractors or subcontractors that do not register and participate in E-Verify, so more immigration enforcement via employment verification.
A political subdivision shall register and participate in the E-verify program to verify information of all new employees.
Why the model tagged it this way: The bill mandates E-Verify participation by local governments for their own hiring and conditions all public contracts on contractor/subcontractor E-Verify use (with termination for noncompliance), directly expanding state/local immigration enforcement through employment verification. No other listed topics are substantively addressed.
