Yes, employers can face criminal liability for knowingly hiring unauthorized workers. While it's not regularly enforced, federal law makes it a crime to hire someone who lacks authorization to work in the country. This can result in fines and even imprisonment depending on the severity and number of violations.

Criminal penalties: Employers who engage in a "pattern or practice" of knowingly hiring unauthorized workers can face criminal charges. This can include fines of up to $3,000 per unauthorized employee and up to six months imprisonment.
