Employers in the United States are supposed to get two forms of ID and they're supposed to verify that you have a social security number and are authorized to work in this country.

Failure to do so has financial and criminal penalties.

All you have to do is crack down on a few and the rest will follow suit.

Threaten home Depot with Rico, and then all of a sudden illegals can't hang out in the home Depot parking lot.

Home depot has nothing to do with the migrants. The illegals are not just going to leave because they don't have a job. They get fake paperwork and most small buisness don't have the knowledge or resources to know they are fake.

This is a border problem. This is an intentionally created crisis. The border patrol has literally destroyed border walls in high traffic areas and bans land owners from building their own. This is a corruption in ICE problem.

What is it called when someone or a company enables someone to commit a crime? And what are the implications when they enable someone's commit a crime multiple times?

ChatGPT said:

When someone or a company enables another person to commit a crime, this is generally referred to as aiding and abetting, facilitation, or complicity. These terms describe a range of actions where a person or entity provides assistance, resources, or support to enable the commission of a crime.

Key Legal Terms and Definitions: Aiding and Abetting: When someone intentionally helps, supports, or encourages another person in the commission of a crime. Facilitation: When someone provides means or opportunity for another person to commit a crime, often without direct involvement. Complicity: A more general term describing participation or involvement in a crime as an accomplice. Legal Implications: The implications can be serious, and in many jurisdictions, aiding or enabling a crime is treated similarly to committing the crime itself. The penalties often depend on:

The Severity of the Crime: Assisting in a violent or serious crime carries heavier penalties. Intent: If it can be proven that the individual or company knew about and intentionally enabled the crime. Repeat Offenses: If a person or company has facilitated multiple crimes, it could lead to charges of patterned behavior, criminal enterprise, or racketeering (if organized and ongoing support for criminal activities is involved). In cases where a company repeatedly enables crimes, it may face civil penalties, regulatory actions, or criminal charges as a corrupt organization. This can lead to heavy fines, business closure, or more severe sanctions depending on the jurisdiction and the nature of the crimes.

What are the laws requiring an employer in the United States to check someone's ID to make sure they have permission to work and what are the penalties for not doing this?

ChatGPT said: ChatGPT In the United States, federal law mandates that employers verify the employment eligibility of all employees, regardless of citizenship, to ensure they are authorized to work. This requirement is primarily governed by the Immigration Reform and Control Act of 1986 (IRCA), which introduced rules and penalties related to employment eligibility verification.

Key Requirements: Form I-9 Completion: Employers must complete and retain a Form I-9, Employment Eligibility Verification, for every employee hired after November 6, 1986. The form verifies both the identity and work authorization of the employee.

E-Verify System: Though optional in many places, some states and federal contractors are required to use E-Verify, an online system managed by the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) in partnership with the Social Security Administration (SSA), to confirm work authorization status electronically.

Employee Documentation: Employees must provide original documents (such as a U.S. passport, Permanent Resident Card, or combination of documents like a driver's license and Social Security card) within three business days of their start date. Employers must examine these documents for authenticity.

Penalties for Non-Compliance: If an employer fails to comply with I-9 verification requirements, they may face various penalties, which include:

Civil Fines:

For Paperwork Violations: These range from $272 to $2,701 per employee for a first offense. Higher fines apply for repeat offenses. For Employing Unauthorized Workers: Civil fines range from $583 to $23,607 per worker for a first offense, with fines increasing for repeat offenses. Criminal Penalties: Employers who engage in a pattern or practice of knowingly hiring unauthorized workers may face criminal charges, with potential penalties including fines and jail time.

Additional Penalties:

Debarment: Employers convicted of employing unauthorized workers may be prohibited from participating in federal contracts or receiving government benefits. Increased Scrutiny and Audits: Employers who fail to comply are more likely to be subjected to additional audits and investigations by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). Failure to comply with employment verification laws can be costly for employers, both financially and legally. Therefore, it's critical that all employers in the U.S. adhere to Form I-9 requirements and conduct verification procedures accurately to avoid penalties.
