Will President Biden’s administration fix the migrant crisis at the U.S.-Mexico border? That’s unclear, but his support for a pathway to citizenship (and driver’s licenses) for illegal immigrants is not promising.

Thankfully, however, states can take actions of their own to oppose illegal immigration. One of those is mandating that all employers in the public and private sector use E-Verify, an online service run by the Department of Homeland Security, to ensure that their hires can legally work in the United States. It’s not a perfect system, but it improves the situation and is something many red states could implement.
