Damn those pesky regulations!

Big deal. Do you think Wilbur Ross is actually doing the hiring of his household help? I'd be surprised if he knew their names.

This is unacceptable, he should be hung for hiring them in the first place, castrated for firming someone just because they don't have proof of citizenship. How can we trust someone who can't even do the simplest of things in their own household.

Wasn't what I asked.

Linda Chavez, Zoe Baird, and Kimba Wood all lost positions because of it. Does it now fall under, 'big deal'?

Just like a candidate having had an affair does now, though it toasted candidates in the past (and granted some of them were fuckall stupid about it), having been divorced changed in the '80's, past drug use with Bush and Obama, etc.

I'm beginning to think that we are much more fucked than I thought.

Let me get this right, since 2009 he's had illegal immigrants working for him but a month before his nomination he decides to check again? Wow. That is diligence of the highest order. I am glad he's not in charge of the Megan's Law website.

Pretty sure you're a moron. He did the check BECAUSE of the vetting.

It might. Times change. We'll see. Until then this is not hitting my outrage meter.

I said not a big deal.

We're in agreement here. I guess that makes us both morons?

Why would he have reason to do it otherwise?

Absent the required verification of a document that has an expiration date, a well-founded reason to believe that a document originally provided was fraudulent, a SSA no-match letter, the destruction/loss of existing records, and perhaps some other limited reasons, I don't believe you can legally require a current employee to resubmit. (And I don't think additional vetting because you're up for a Cabinet post is one of the other limited reasons.)

I can see checking the I-9 forms on file to verify that everything was done properly in the first place, but asking every employee to resubmit seems to be a dick move, if not an unlawful one. Say a US citizen employee who had provided proper documents upon hire had refused, there may be a legitimate lawsuit if the employee was fired after refusing to cooperate.

That said, I agree that it's no big deal. I didn't think it was a bid deal for Kimba Wood and Zoe Baird.

It would be nice (but naive) to find that someone would do the right thing out of principle rather than because they are forced into it.

Someone hired this person and since he was going to be vetted they made sure everything was done right. I see no reason why someone would go back and check because one should assume it was done properly originally

If he assumed it was done properly originally why would he have to worry about it? Why should it matter whether it was found in vetting or whether it was found later? This is incredibly low on my outrage meter, but I don't think your argument makes any sense and it seems like you are doing it just to argue.
