A bill that would expand the E-Verify employment verification system and require its use by all employers was reintroduced in the House on May 26. Introduced by Rep. Health Shuler (D-NC) and cosponsored by 37 others, the bipartisan Secure America through Verification and Enforcement (SAVE) Act (H.R. 2000) would create a four-year phase-in period during which all employers would eventually be required to use E-Verify to check the employment eligibility of their potential and current hires.
