Did You Know? The social security database e-verify uses has a 4 percent error rate, though Shuler claims the overall system has an error rate of half a percent. Both of those numbers sound insignificant. Iowa Republican Steve King says “The accuracy of the e-verify system is remarkable!” and “almost perfect!” But 4 percent of 153 million workers is 6,120,000. (Half a percent is 765,000.) That’s a lot of people who will have to wrangle with the federal government before showing up at the office.
