They get fined by the state if they give the information but is there a federal penalty if they don't give the information?
Yes, not the least of which is "Harboring":
Harboring -- Subsection 1324(a)(1)(A)(iii) makes it an offense for any person who -- knowing or in reckless disregard of the fact that an alien has come to, entered, or remains in the United States in violation of law, conceals harbors, or shields from detection, or attempts to conceal, harbor, or shield from detection, such alien in any place, including any building or any means of transportation.
Encouraging/Inducing -- Subsection 1324(a)(1)(A)(iv) makes it an offense for any person who -- encourages or induces an alien to come to, enter, or reside in the United States, knowing or in reckless disregard of the fact that such coming to, entry, or residence is or will be in violation of law.
Conspiracy/Aiding or Abetting -- Subsection 1324(a)(1)(A)(v) expressly makes it an offense to engage in a conspiracy to commit or aid or abet the commission of the foregoing offenses.
...With regard to violations of 8 U.S.C. § 1324(a)(1)(ii)-(iv) and (v)(ii), domestic transportation, harboring, encouraging/inducing, or aiding/abetting, the basic statutory maximum term of imprisonment is 5 years, unless the offense was committed for commercial advantage or private financial gain, in which case the maximum term of imprisonment is 10 years.
California forming their own country for illegals would solve the problem- for them and the rest of America. Let's then build a wall around California.
So... Why would the State of California choose to deliberately prosecute employers who report illegal aliens to ICE? That doesn't involve the state at all.
And with this, its merely cooperating in a federal raid, and these raids are forthcoming. The employers must be scared ****less, ICE comes in getting tough, and the state is threatening them from the other side. The new state laws are complicated, and there has been warning that ignorance of the laws is no excuse for employers. Way to support your businesses, scare and threaten them, because supporting illegals is more important.
State forcing private employers not to cooperate with feds, regardless of the consequences to the employer, a bold step.
