SENATE MAY CONSIDER BILL TO RE-IMPOSE NO-MATCH RULE
Just hours after the announcement that DHS will seek to rescind the controversial social security no-match rule, the Senate may consider an amendment to the DHS spending bill that has been introduced by Senator David Vitter (R-LA). Amendment 1375 would bar DHS from revoking the rule and require its implementation. The amendment language is as follows:
Sec. 556. None of the amounts made available under this Act may be used to--
(1) amend, rewrite, or change the final rule requiring Federal Contractors to use E-Verify (promulgated on November 14, 2008);
(2) further delay the implementation of the rule described in paragraph (1) beyond September 8, 2009; or
(3) amend, rewrite, change, or delay the implementation of the final rule describing the process for employers to follow after receiving a ``no match'' letter in order to qualify for ``safe harbor'' status (promulgated on August 15, 2007).
The first two sections are basically moot since the White House announced their support yesterday for the contractor rule. The third item is the one that is at issue.
