IS GEORGIA IGNORING ITS SANCTIONS LAW?

The same question is coming up in Georgia as in other states. The Georgia Department of Labor doesn’t appear to be doing any monitoring to see who is and who is not complying. The Atlanta Journal-Constitution did its own investigation and found that most state agencies had signed up for E-Verify, though many did so a year late. But they also found that county and local agencies often had not. Some agency representatives were not even aware of the requirement. Opponents of the law argue that cash-strapped agencies shouldn’t be burdened with the new requirement.
