This investigation began March 23 after ICE was notified of a man whose Social Security number was discovered to be invalid

And this should be the primary point of investigation. I have read that approx. 9.3 million SSN's are bogus(still can't find official source, wonder why?) Social Security knows where the employers are and should turn all info over to ICE and the rest of Homeland Security.

This is something a ten year old could figure out. Why hasn't it been done already?

There aren't 9.3m fraudulent SSNs, there have been 9.3m invalid W-2s (ie SSNs don't match up) filed for 2005 tax returns. To my knowledge, there aren't any published stats available from the IRS - this was leaked info. As to the actual number of fraudulent SSNs floating around, it's probably incalculable.

Because it's against the law to reveal that information. IRS and SS are forbidden to give that information to ANYBODY.

And it doesn't seem to do any good to climb all over the Republicans' asses over this illegal immigration thing.

We donate the money and the votes and they posture to a gaggle of uneducated illegal criminals that steal, rape, cause auto accidents, use up the welfare money and are, in general, a damned nuisance that could be eliminated.

They roll their eyes when you suggest these illegal criminals be rounded up and deported because they fear the logistics of such an action.

The police hunt down murders one at a time. If that's what it takes then damnit do it!!!

Three months ago Senator Brownback told us in a townhall meeting that he had been in a meeting at the White House where it was stated there are over 400,000 in this country with the same Social Security number.....000-00-0000.

Saw a report yesterday that said crooks are selling newborn and young children's SS #'s -- SS discovers this but is precluded from notifying the parents of the problem; granted that doesn't get rid of the illegals but the fact that someone is using your child's number and doing who knows what and the government knows and doesn't let you know is a little frightening.

I'm sorry but a poster such as yourself, who doesn't even know the difference between the Republican Senate Bill and the Democrat alternative, nor what a FILLIBUSTER is, is hardly a credible source of "information".
