“Focused on illegal immigration in Georgia, I am writing a news/opinion column on the results of passage of SB 379 in the 2022 General Assembly. To insure fairness and accuracy I hope to include any comment from you as the bill’s sponsor. I am also hoping for a response to the following request:
Please cite any language or reference to any required verification procedure contained in current laws created by SB 379 that serve to exclude illegal alien employees and employers from participating in and benefiting from the apprenticeship program as apprentices, apprenticeship sponsors or apprenticeship employers?
* For clarity, put differently, is there a provision in SB 379 that prevents illegal alien employers and employees similar to the subjects of this press release by the U.S. Attorney in Georgia’s Southern District from accessing the tax-payer-funded apprenticeship program on any level?
If yes, please cite and explain any existing provisions.
I am writing for my own blog and will likely submit a version of my finished investigation column to James Magazine Online and/or Breitbart News. My deadline is Tuesday, Dec.5 2023 at 5:00 PM.
In an effort to insure you see this request I am copying your Capitol office staff, sending it to your Senate address and pasting it into the contact form on your Senate page.”
Thank you,
