What Should Employers Know Right Now
Under the Bush administration, the focus of worksite enforcement actions was arresting illegal aliens. Under the Obama administration, however, the focus of the Department of Homeland Security (”DHS”) has shifted to criminal prosecution of employers. DHS made this clear in an April 30, 2009, memorandum setting out its worksite enforcement strategy and in a corresponding U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (”ICE”) Worksite Enforcement Fact Sheet.
