College Employment Accountability Act
HR 2367, the College Employment Accountability Act, requires colleges and universities receiving federal student aid or institutional funds to comply with immigration laws or risk losing that funding. Specifically, it prohibits institutions from receiving federal aid if they hire individuals without legal work authorization (violating Section 274A of immigration law) and mandates participation in the E-Verify employment verification program. The Department of Homeland Security must monitor compliance every six months and notify the Education Secretary within 10 days if an institution violates immigration rules or fails to use E-Verify. This directly affects all higher education institutions seeking federal financial assistance under the Higher Education Act.
