Mark Krikorian Executive Director of Center for Immigration Studies, Gerri Ratliff Chief to the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Verification Division, and Paul Donnelly former Communications Director at the Commission on Immigration Reform discussed "Immigrant Employment Verification and Small Business." Ideas such as immigration reform proposals, enforcement of law precluding the employment of illegal aliens, and measures to provide employers tools to adequately verify the status of potential workers were provided. Among the topics they addressed were proposals to institute a national identification card system, efforts to gain congressional support for mandatory employment verification programs in current proposals for immigration reform legislation, and the maintenance of information databases to administer verification programs
