Well it’s about time. Hopefully this will be sustained and not shot down by a treasonous commie judge.
So let me get this straight. People could qualify for Social Security disability payments simply because they couldn’t speak english?
I’ll bet we see night school English classes filling up quickly.
And all this time they have been telling us that ILLEGALS do not receive benefits.
They wouldn’t lie now, would they?
Do not accept deceptive news article titles.
Inability to Speak English is not a SSD/SSI Covered “Disability”.
Access to real disability coverage is unimpeded.
No speeka English. Dinero?
And what passes as “learning English”? “I vote for you”?!
When you have a disability, social security looks at a variety of factors to decide if you should just get a check every month or retrain to work in a different job. In the past, not speaking English was a factor in saying retraining probably won’t work. It won’t in the future.
p
Not simply because; but one of the deciding factors.
Two identically marginally disabled applicants under the definitions kept for SSI; one native born English=speaking, one not able to speak Engish. The one not able to speak English is more likely to be approved for benefits.
Oh yes, the liberal rot extends that deep. They’ve thought of every possible way to stack the deck in favor of their agenda; and Trump keeps pulling supports from the bottom of the house of cards.
I know it's a dumb question, but how do ILLEGALS (non citizens) qualify for SS benefits.
Illiteracy in a foreign language is NOT a qualifying disability and those who originally pushed it through should be named and held accountable.
Why are illegals getting SS in the first place?
Not a specific reason, but it could tip the balance between getting SS and not getting it.
The article doesn’t say illegals are getting Social Security.
BACKSTORY
<><> a 1996 piece in Fordham Law Review celebrated Elizabeth Warren as Harvard Law School’s “first woman of color.”
<><> Harvard’s 1999 Affirmative Action Plan Book appears to identify Warren, not by name, but it could not possibly be anyone else.
The latter document is important b/c:
(A) Harvard is considered a federal contractor,
(B) its employment practices fall under the Dept of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP).
(C) the compliance program “requires “ a contractor, to discover barriers to equal employment opportunity.
<><> Executive Order 11246, as amended;
<><> Section 503 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, as amended; and.
<><> the Vietnam Era Veterans’ Readjustment Assistance Act of 1974, as amended, 38 U.S.C. 4212.
These authorities prohibit Federal contractors and subcontractors from discriminating on the basis of race, color, religion, sex, national origin, disability, and protected veteran status.
They also require Federal contractors and subcontractors to take affirmative action to ensure equal employment opportunity in their employment processes. Its regulations can be found at CFR Title 41 Chapter 60: Public Contracts and Property Management.
The article doesn’t say that illiteracy in a foreign language ever was a qualifying disability.
It’s not new!! The law that President Trump is enforcing has been on the books since 1952. Other Presidents (Obama, GW Bush) chose to IGNORE it. President Trump isn’t.
