"Contrary to business lobbyists' claims, E-Verify creates no significant burden on companies or their recent hires," said James Massa. "Employers simply upload information from the new employee's I-9 form, which the federal government already requires them to collect. The E-Verify system is highly accurate -- and clears more than 98% of hires to work either instantly or within 24 hours."

Key Points: 
  • "E-Verify would prevent West Virginia from becoming the next destination spot for illegal immigrants," said James Massa, CEO of NumbersUSA.
  • "It would effectively shut off the jobs magnet that draws migrants to seek illegal employment in West Virginia."
  • HB 4759 , the immigration bill under review in West Virginia's Senate, would require companies with 15 or more employees to use E-Verify.
  • "West Virginians agree that Mountain State jobs should go to legal residents," said James Massa.
