College Employment Accountability Act

Bill 119 s 1123, also known as the "Higher Education Act Amendment Act," aims to make changes to the Higher Education Act of 1965. The main purpose of this bill is to prevent institutions of higher education that employ unauthorized aliens from receiving funds from Federal student assistance or Federal institutional aid. In addition, the bill also requires institutions of higher education to participate in the E-Verify Program in order to be eligible to participate in any program authorized under title IV of the Higher Education Act.

The E-Verify Program is a system that allows employers to verify the employment eligibility of their employees by checking their information against government databases. By requiring institutions of higher education to participate in this program, the bill aims to ensure that all employees at these institutions are legally authorized to work in the United States.

Overall, the goal of Bill 119 s 1123 is to promote compliance with immigration laws and prevent the employment of unauthorized aliens at institutions of higher education that receive federal funding. This bill is currently under consideration in Congress and may have significant implications for how institutions of higher education operate and receive federal funding in the future.
