East Valley labor pool dips due to hiring law

The East Valley Tribune

The Fair and Legal Employment Act, which Gov. Janet Napolitano signed Monday, will suspend and revoke the business licenses of Arizona employers who “knowingly” or “intentionally” hire illegal immigrants.

The problem, employers say, is that no one knows what the legal standard is for “knowingly” or “intentionally” hiring illegal immigrants. Will employers who accept job applicants’ IDs, such as driver’s licenses, legal residency cards and Social Security cards, be punished if those IDs later are determined to be fraudulent?
