Overview
This bill requires New Jersey state agencies to obtain certification from individuals and employers before awarding contracts, loans, grants, or licenses. The certification must confirm that the person’s presence in the United States is authorized under federal law, or that an employer has made a good faith effort to verify employee eligibility. This aims to ensure that state funds and privileges are not provided to unauthorized aliens, supplementing existing Title 52 of the Revised Statutes.
