Since October 2009, U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) has levied over $600,000 in fines against Texas businesses for immigration-related violations ranging from incomplete I-9 records to employment of illegal immigrants, reports the Houston Chronicle. The largest fine ($360,000) imposed on a single business stemmed from an investigation commenced by the Bush administration in 2008. The newspaper’s review of federal records revealed a focus on fining employers rather than arresting undocumented workers, reflecting the Obama administration’s new immigration enforcement strategy that focuses on employer culpability through audits.
