Arkansas Bill May Require Verification of Employee Social Security Numbers
The Arkansas Democrat Gazette reports that Arkansas state representative Bill Sample plans to introduce a bill requiring businesses to verify employees' Social Security numbers prior to issuing identification cards. Rep. Sample says the following about the bill:
It will establish proper guidelines for the issuance of identification cards and documents. ... We're trying to define who can give out identification cards and what those ID cards would state. We don't want those phony ID cards to go out. ... If you give them an ID card, you're responsible to do a little due diligence and make sure that person is in the state legally.
