HB 1186 -- Publicly Financed Projects

Sponsor:  Wildberger

This bill prohibits a person from employing or subcontracting
with an illegal alien on any publicly financed project.  Any
person in violation, in addition to any other penalty, will be
fined $10 per illegal individual per day and will not be eligible
to bid on any publicly financed project for 10 years after the
violation.

Currently, in a period of excessive unemployment, any person
constructing or building a public works project must employ only
Missouri laborers or laborers from nonrestrictive states.  Any
person in violation will forfeit to the contracting political
subdivision $10 per nonqualifying laborer per day.  The political
subdivision awarding the public works project is authorized to
withhold any amounts due as a result of the violation.
