New legislation would crack down on hiring illegal immigrant workers and ‘sanctuary unions’

Republicans have proposed new legislation that would make hiring illegal immigrants an unfair labor practice, giving the federal government a new avenue to punish businesses that recruit them and labor unions that seek to get them to unionize.

Led by Sens. Jim Banks of Indiana and Bill Cassidy of Louisiana, the bill would give the National Labor Relations Board jurisdiction to investigate and prosecute cases.

“Hiring illegal aliens drives down American wages and pushes our workers out of good jobs,” Mr. Banks said in a statement. “If employers won’t follow the law, we’ll use every tool we have to make sure they face consequences.”
