Cato Change-Up: Now E-Verify Isn’t Tough Enough
Bob Dane June 27, 2019
The open-borders Cato Institute is back to attacking the federal E-Verify employee-vetting program, asserting that it “let 12 million illegal hires happen since 2006.â€
Cato bases its claim on a shaky statistical model and a dubious hypothesis: “If the system worked, it should deny applicants roughly in proportion to the illegal share of the labor force.â€
The libertarian think tank doesn’t justify its assumptions or identify a single illegal alien who allegedly slipped through E-Verify. Such details are unnecessary inconveniences for an outfit that reflexively opposes immigration enforcement laws.
