The ACLU is protecting the rights of immigrants, refugees, and non-citizens. They stand in the way of U.S. citizens and employment. The government had a plan in effect known as the so-called “no-match program” that targeted companies that had employees with names and social security numbers that don’t match their W-2 earnings. The ACLU and other groups sued the government to block it.

ACLU Bocked first plan


The Obama administration will be ending that program in hopes that the new E-Verify system will be more successful than the no-match plan. Both programs are similar in nature with the difference being that the targeted companies are those that have received more than $3,000 in taxpayer money from the stimulus.

E-Verify next target


Many business owners are not in favor of the program. A major trade and lobbying group for government contractors Alan Chvotkin, executive vice president of the Professional Services Council said, “Contractors were concerned they would be required to take responsibility for compliance by subcontractors. If workers are found to be in the U.S. illegal, contractors are supposed to fire them.” Can those companies be trusted to do that?

Employment Hope for the taxpayer?


The government was already sued in December by the U.S. Chamber of Commerce along with a host of others to halt the program. The ACLU sent a letter to Congress early this year expressing its disapproval of E-verify.
How will this country ever pass legislation when companies and Associations like the ACLU, which are supposed to protect taxpayers, continually, sue our government to block its enactment?

Is it time to write the President for taxpayer help to obtain jobs entitled to Americans?
