Plain-English Summary

The bill would require all companies that receive federal government contracts to use E-Verify, a system that checks whether employees are legally authorized to work in the United States. Currently, only certain federal contractors must use E-Verify, so this would expand the requirement to all of them. The change would affect millions of workers and thousands of companies that do business with the federal government.
