Nearly 159,000 immigrants whose visas will expire in the next five years will continue working illegally in the United States, federal investigators say. That would cost the government money in unjustified Social Security payments. It would aggravate the overall illegal-immigration burden, which Congress is now closer to confronting again. And it could threaten homeland security, investigators warn. "Unauthorized work by immigrants ... weakens Social Security numbers' integrity and may require that the agency pay future benefits to these individuals," Social Security investigators note in their new report. Moreover, "they may obtain employment in sensitive areas." But the latest evidence about...

The U.S.-Mexico Totalization Agreement The U.S. Commissioner of Social Security signed a totalization agreement with the Director General of the Mexican Social Security Institute on June 29, 2004. Now that the agreement has been signed, it must be reviewed first by the State Department, and then by the White House, which will submit it to Congress. Congress will have then have 60 "legislative" days to review the agreement. During this period, current law authorizes either Chamber to pass a Resolution of Disapproval of the agreement, or it will take effect automatically at the end of the 60-day period. In addition,...

Totalization With Mexico Could "Total" Social Security Recently, I received a letter from Edward I. Nelson, the Chairman of United States Border Control, regarding a proposed “Totalization Treaty/Agreement” with Mexico. This is not a subject with which I am unfamiliar, as I wrote an article about it while I was a reporter for Talon News/GOPUSA.com, viewable here. (I have to refer you to this website, as the archives at Talon News are no longer available since the “Gannon-gate” ordeal.) Totalization agreements were begun to help employees sent abroad to still have enough credits to draw Social Security benefits with the...

President George W. Bush wants to give illegal aliens the Social Security lockbox key.His Social Security Totalization Agreement with Mexico will give illegals money he claims will not be there when younger Americans retire. The diabolical brilliance of Dubya's self-fulfilling prophesy is extraordinario. That's Spanish for extraordinary, amigo.Or as the two cutout figures in the Guiness beer commercials say --"brilliant!"If Congress is stupid enough to agree, it will make Bush's case that Social Security insolvency is just around the corner (a street corner full of illegals taking jobs that should be for Americans).The United States has totalization programs with 20...

QUITO, Ecuador Mexico and Washington agreed to introduce similar legislative initiatives whereby Mexican workers who paid into Social Security in the United States will be refunded their contributions when they return to their homeland, President Vicente Fox said here Monday. "The initiatives entail the recognition of all those (Mexicans) who have worked in the United States legally or otherwise, so they will have the right to the savings they accumulated while working in the neighboring country," said Fox, who is visiting Ecuador. During a news conference with Mexican journalists accompanying him on his travels, Fox announced that he and U.S....

LOU DOBBS TONIGHT Aired September 22, 2004 Three million illegal aliens will enter this country this year. Asmany as 12 million are already here. So why all the talk of amnesty? We'll have a special report. And an exclusive report on what the governments of the United States and Mexico had hoped would be a secret agreement, an agreement that would encourage millions more illegal aliens to enter this country. REP. DANA ROHRABACHER (R), CA: If we spend more money and we provide more benefits to illegal immigrants, there will be more illegal immigrants. (END VIDEO CLIP) DOBBS: Congressman...

U.S. BORDER CONTROL ^ | August/10/04
A year ago, this organization warned that the Bush Administration was planning to do something unthinkable - they were seriously considering signing a pact with Mexico that would give any Mexican who had worked in the U.S., including illegal aliens, full U.S. Social Security benefits, paid out of your Social Security Trust Fund! It seemed so far fetched, we had trouble convincing the Congress that it could happen. A White House spokesman denied our claim that it was on a fast track, stating the ongoing discussions for Totalization were just informal and preliminary. But we knew better. We had obtained...
This is the part that should upset anyone with their head wired on right side up. Illegals may contribute into SS, but they do so through falsified documentation.
This isn't a good thing. No amount of sugar coating it can make it a good thing. A chocolate covered dog turd is still a dog turd.
Bush and his Dem allies will now finish writing the final chapter for this Nation. Hard choices ahead kids.
Thank you. I'm disgusted with myself for not taking it more seriously and this wonderful government we have. It appears a perfect storm is brewing in this country.
