Abstract:
As many predicted four years ago, the employee sanctions in IRCA have led to widespread discrimination against minorities. This suggests that Congress should repeal this provision of IRCA. The proposal for a national identity card would make a bad policy even worse. Such a card, in effect a federal right to work permit, carries a potential for abuse too great to risk.
