Some have said that, but the fines do increase in later offenses.
1st time prosecution is 275-2000 dollars per illegal employee.(or at least was at some point)
2nd time prosecution is capped at 3000 dollars at some point(may not be the same year as above)(which still seems like nothing compared to the cost to the hospital/road/school/law enforcement systems over the lifetime of an illegal alien)
3rd time prosecution and the offender can receive jail time of up to 6 months per employee, but I didn't see anyone being sentenced to that, though one did take the 3000 fine(big whoop) in a plea bargain to avoid it.
I thought they already got prosecuted and just paid the lowball fines and kept doing it.
Replying to myself.
