Evidence

The first step to reforming our immigration system is enforcing the laws we already have to discourage illegal immigration. We can do this by ensuring that all jobs are only made available to those authorized in the United States by requiring the use of the E-Verify program.

Buddy Carter publicly endorsed mandatory E-Verify as the way to ensure jobs go only to people authorized to work in the United States.

This bill amends the Immigration and Nationality Act to direct the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) to establish an employment eligibility verification system (EEVS), patterned after the E-Verify system. The bill establishes a phased-in EEVS participation deadline for different categories of employers... Latest Action: House - 10/25/2017 Ordered to be Reported (Amended) by the Yeas and Nays: 20 - 10.

The underlying E-Verify bill advanced in committee but never became law, so the promise was not fulfilled.

Assessments

never same_term A for effort

Carter clearly supported mandatory E-Verify and made a concrete legislative effort by cosponsoring H.R. 3711, the Legal Workforce Act, which would have made employment eligibility verification mandatory. However, the cited bill only advanced in committee and did not become law, and the promised federal requirement was not delivered during the relevant term. Because there was a serious legislative attempt but the promised outcome failed, this is classified as never with an effort badge.
