Jessica Abrahams Comments on OMB’s Proposed E-Verify Rule in Bloomberg Law

In an article for Bloomberg Law, government contracts partner Jessica Abrahams offered insight on the Office of Management and Budget’s proposed rule that would require federal grant recipients to enroll in E Verify.

According to the article, the E-Verify expansion would come with new reporting requirements for grant recipients if the system is unable to confirm a worker’s employment authorization.

Abrahams noted that while the proposal does not explicitly state the goal of the reporting requirement, it could potentially aid further enforcement efforts by the Trump administration.
