A recent report by the Federation For American Immigration Reform concludes that the unlawful presence of illegal aliens in the Commonwealth costs taxpayers $1.7 billion every year for the costs of providing services, the burden on the criminal justice system, and educating illegal aliens and their children in our school systems. It makes no sense to burden taxpayers with these costs, especially in tough economic times. It is time for the General Assembly to enact tough new reforms that will reduce this massive burden by encouraging illegal aliens through responsible and common-sense laws to leave Virginia!
The City of Manassas Park and the City of Manassas Schools use E-Verify to confirm the employment of authorized workers in their jurisdictions. Use of the E-Verify (formerly Basic Pilot Program) database makes smart business sense because it ensures that all new hires have a legal right to work in the United States. And, it protects employers from fines and penalties for knowingly or unknowingly hiring illegal foreign workers.
Prince William County does not verify the eligibility of its workers. In this time of recession and high unemployment, it is important that Prince William County is employing only those persons who are legally eligible to work in the United States.
You can visit the site that lists those businesses using E-Verify at http://www.smartbusinesspractices.com/pilot/

E-Verify History:
When so many Virginians are out of work, it only makes sense that Prince William County and the City of Manassas should use E-Verify to ensure that taxpayer dollars aren't being used to support the unlawful presence of illegal aliens in our connunities when legal workers could be filling those jobs. Please contact your elected officials today and ask them why they aren't using E-Verify!
