Rep. Virgil Goode (R-VA) and 32 House cosponsors recently introduced a resolution expressing congressional disapproval of the U.S./Mexico Social Security totalization agreement signed last June.


Virgil GoodeThe proposed agreement is a major threat to the United States Social Security system and could result in benefits being paid to Mexicans working illegally in the U.S.

The U.S./Mexico agreement was signed by the Commissioner of Social Security and the Director General of the Mexican Social Security Institute on June 29, 2004. Before it can go into effect, President Bush must submit the agreement to Congress.

"When it comes to immigration matters, the government invariably underestimates the costs and the numbers of people who will apply for any program or benefit," warned Dan Stein, president of FAIR.


Dan Stein"What is billed as a limited program that will allow a relatively small number of people who have paid into the system to collect benefits will almost certainly turn into a feeding frenzy as lawyers line up clients who will claim benefits under the agreement. Until we straighten out the mess in our immigration system - not to mention our Social Security system - these sorts of agreements are premature and fiscally irresponsible," said Stein.

By the Social Security Administration's own admission, they do not know how many Social Security numbers are currently being used fraudulently. Moreover, under an amnesty/guest worker program proposed by President Bush, potentially millions more workers from Mexico and other countries would also qualify for Social Security benefits.

"With the President's proposal on the table, it is important to establish a clear policy that time worked without authorization will not be rewarded with Social Security benefits," Stein said.

House Resolution 50, expressing disapproval by the Congress of the Social Security agreement, sends a clear message to the Bush administration that members of the House will contest the agreement if and when he sends it to Congress.

"Our Social Security system is probably not going to be able to deliver on the promises it has made to current and future retirees. Even if it was possible to sort out potential claims filed by millions of illegal aliens, the benefits paid to them would come directly out of the pockets of America's own elderly," warned Stein.

NO WONDER BUSHY BOY has spent the past two months PEDDLIN' his Social Security Scam!!

2ndamendsis--I knew alittle about this issue but this article explains it and brings it out of the Dark with LIGHT!! I wrote my US Senator who wrote me back...not Dole....Richard Burr and he blah blah about the "equity" of the immigrants deserving social security. Well....I'm gonna call his office and let him know....we're not interest in "foreign equity".

Bushy Boy.....you are now CAUGHT square in the middle of the road staring at Headlights!!

Gotcha!!

He needs his new little plan to pay for all the aging immigrants, not our citizens and senior citizens....Mexico's Citizens.

This makes me nauseus!! There are MANY MORE aliens here than the 12,000,000 they are using for their published "guess". There are 50,000,000. But....I think some of this figure was made legal over the years by Amnesties I just learned about. In my book, an Amnestied Illegal creates the same problem as a non-Amnestied Illegal. It's still a person that our economy and society can not sustain.

Let's not forget those ANCHOR BABIES!!

Makes you want to upchuck, doesn't it?

That it do...2ndamendsis. 50,000,000 extra people in the United States because of illegal immigration--one-sixth our population. All to gain what?

The mess we have now.

UNBELIEVABLE!!

Those responsible need to pay for all the problems they have caused our nation.

And, ya know what, I think when the whole truth about the numbers comes out....ANGRY AMERICANS.....will be an understatement.

Hey scratch my post

Is there any way we can get out of this agreement?
Why sign an agreement to force Americans into privatization unless you were profiting from it?
We need to do something about this anchor baby situation, which absolutely burns me up by the BTW. Ireland had a good approach. Your child is legal but your not, you have to leave, your choice...

GO! VIRGINIA!!! Thank heavens this isn't in concrete yet, what a relief...I will be sending a few letters today...
JORGE HAS GOT TO GO... NOW!!!

We are running out of money because of these illegals. This all didn't start until 30 years ago when illegal entry at borders was the norm. Now they want to blame it on the 'baby boomers' retiring? What a farce! Money is running out because scams are going on all over the place. The Social Security Admin is just another government agency that has no clue who it sends it's money to because there are so many bogus #'s out there. To include Mexico into a 'pension plan' that was meant for Americans only, is dead wrong!

Butterbean!! The Social Security Administratio sends money to anybody.... even Dead People!!

Just another corrupt branch of our government.

House Resolution 50, expressing disapproval by the Congress of the Social Security agreement, sends a clear message to the Bush administration that members of the House will contest the agreement if and when he sends it to Congress.
