"Here we go with another guest column from Nicole (Nici) Kersey who offers a witty, wise and worthy post on the inequities and inanities of the worksite enforcement scheme concocted by Congress in 1990, a flawed system of employer deputization of governmental functions largely maladministered by various agencies of the Executive Branch. Worse yet for employers, the states too are getting into the act. Witness last week's California Supreme Court decision, Salas v. Sierra Chemical Co., which held that claims of undocumented workers who present false documentation during the I-9 process are enforceable against employers under state antidiscrimination and worker protection laws , despite the defense of federal immigration-law preemption -- at least until the employer receives notice that the worker is unauthorized for employment. So the broken enforcement scheme creates ever more headaches and hurdles for employers." - Angelo A. Paparelli, June 30, 2014.
