A business coalition, including the U.S. Chamber and SHRM, has lost in its effort to have a court overturn the federal regulation requiring federal contractors to start using the E-Verify Program for federal contracts that are Citizenship & Imm logoentered into or modified after September 8, 2009.  The U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Maryland on August 26, 2009, turned down all arguments raised by the plaintiffs and has opened the door for the rule to be applicable as planned on September 8, 2009. There is no word on whether or not the decision will be appealed.  The USCIS Web site has a federal contractor page as well as a series of Q&As on the rule that explains its provisions and application.
