The most important of those measures is to prevent unauthorized aliens from getting work, since the jobs magnet is the primary lure for illegal immigration.
Commentators and analysts across the political spectrum have acknowledged that preventing illegal employment is key to deterring illegal immigration.
Universal implementation of E-Verify has been blocked by employers who prefer to hire illegal aliens over American workers.
A 2017 study by Carnegie Mellon University found that Arizona's E-Verify law induced return migration from Arizona to Mexico and decreased illegal immigration into Arizona from Mexico.
Wages for low-skilled American and legal-immigrant workers in mandatory E-Verify states rose between 7 percent and 9 percent, while wages for illegal Mexican males dropped nearly 8 percent.
For E-Verify to work to its fullest potential, it must be made universal and enforced, so that employers who use it are not put at a competitive disadvantage against employers who continue to use cheap illegal labor.
One study of employment data from 2008 found that half of all illegal workers who submitted papers for E-Verify were incorrectly found to be authorized for work.
