Here Come the Consequences

New immigration rules will force undocumented workers to be fired: "What happened: New rules proposed Friday by the Bush administration will require employers to fire employees unable to clear up problems with their Social Security numbers 90 days after they've been notified of such discrepancies in what are called no-match letters.

What it means: Hiring undocumented workers has been illegal for two decades, but until now, employers were not held liable for fraudulent documents. Employers who fail to comply will face fines and sanctions.

What's next: The new rules take effect in 30 days. "

I guess we'll be pickin' our own fucking grapes from now on.
