    You want to hire someone, but first you conduct a criminal background check. The EEOC will sue you. http://ow.ly/lX53n

        @ByronYork Yep. Pols want employers to do the work of government in determining legal status without asking intrusive questions-Impossible.

        @jaanbam @ByronYork Of course. Which is why background check are allowed. You just can't use them to target people of a certain race.

        @ByronYork @JonahNRO Would this include the FBI, or ATF? (CIA & NSA such a background might be a plus).

        @ByronYork If job requires money handling, need check for bonding and insurance. Weird to attack employers for people's bad choices.

        @ByronYork @debsinger2 so can a company that installs security systems do background checks? How about contractors?

        @ByronYork All applications ask the question have you been convicted of a crime. Lying on an application is cause for termination.

        @ByronYork Yes, and credit checks as well--the EEOC sued Kaplan for that practice, but Kaplan prevailed on summary judgment.
