E-Verify Part of Senate bipartisan immigration proposal

...A bipartisan immigration proposal in the Senate would require all employers after five years to use E-Verify, a now voluntary system that helps detect unaccredited workers. Employers would be phased into the system, starting with those that work as contractors for the federal government and eventually encompassing small businesses. 
The federal government launched E-Verify in 1996 as a pilot program to check workers' immigration status. The system compares information such as name and Social Security number provided on an I-9 employment form against records at the Department of Homeland Security and the Social Security Administration. It also allows employers to match a worker's passport photo with a photo in the E-Verify database.
Business groups such as the Chamber of Commerce have indicated they wouldn't protest a mandatory E-Verify system as part of an immigration overhaul that includes visa programs for guest workers.

We have to "WAIT 5 YEARS" for "ALL" employers to be "REQUIRED" to use E-Verify.?!?!?

I thought this might be April Fool's Day when I first read this article, but then I checked the calendar and discovered, much to my chagrin, that it's the 13th, not the 1st of the month.

This gang of cheaters, liars and thieves in Washington is trying yet again to put one over on the American people, while they live like BLEEPING ROYALTY at our expense.

They must think we're all a bunch of gullible and naive imbeciles if they actually believe we'll buy this pig in a poke one more time.

Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me.

WE DON'T NEED ANY NEW LAWS. WE JUST NEED TO ENFORCE THE LAWS WE ALREADY HAVE, AND SECURE THE DAMN BORDER!!!
