Ogletree Deakins: California's New Immigration Laws Impacting Employers | Practical Law

This Law Firm Publication by Ogletree, Deakins, Nash, Smoak & Stewart, P.C. discusses three immigration-related bills recently signed by Governor Brown, which may require California employers to modify their policies and procedures. The Unfair Immigration-Related Practices law (AB 263) and the Retaliation Based on Immigration/Citizenship Status law (SB 666) go into effect January 1, 2014 and expand anti-retaliation protections for employees and add to prohibited employer Form I-9 practices. The Driver's License for Undocumented Residents law (AB 60), effective January 1, 2015, allows undocumented California residents to obtain valid driver's licenses, allthough the licenses cannot serve as evidence of valid work authorization for I-9 purposes.
