Using independent contractors to circumvent the rule is not the move. Or is it? Are you suggesting that hiring of illegals is the goal?? That couldn’t be…when republicans in FL support all the deportations, right? LOL. The small business owners definitely want the illegals here, don’t they? So why all the double speak? Why not just tell the truth? You want to exploit illegals by giving low wages and no workplace protections. In the same breath, you want them living on edge. Never safe and secure. Vulnerable and cornered so you can further exploit them for low/no wages and long hours. I hate it here.

Curtis, this is from the article above your inattentive comment:

“Under current law, all public employers and private employers with 25 or more workers are required to use E-Verify. The bill would expand that to smaller private employers.”

David, a contractor isn’t an employee so you’d likely be in the clear.

I thought e-verify was a voluntary system. How can the legislature compel a private business to use it?

What if I hire an “Independent Contractor” to do a Job for my Company?
