US immigration enforcement – both at the border and in communities across the country – has created widespread anxiety for employers and foreign-national employees due to the rapid changes in policies and their enforcement by US immigration authorities. The recently passed “One Big Beautiful Bill Act” significantly increases DHS’ budget for key immigration enforcement priorities such as border security operations and interior enforcement operations. The dramatic expansion of DHS’ enforcement capabilities will likely have lasting effects on the US immigration system, which will continue to impact employers and employees alike.
In our latest Mobility Minute video chat, our Global Immigration and Mobility attorneys address key issues such as the new E-Verify notification procedure and share guidance for employers and insights concerning worksite raids, denaturalization, and I-9 audits. Given the heightened anxiety among employers and employees, our attorneys also provide proactive steps employers can take to prepare for potential worksite enforcement actions, such as reviewing and updating policies, conducting audits, and staying informed about legal changes and enforcement trends.
