Always liked Rohrabacher, and we should all get on our various reps to support this!

Rep. Rohrabacher is a true man for the American people.

I seriously doubt Speaker of the House Pelosi will allow the bill to reach the House floor. Actually, I have my doubts that any bill not supporting illegal aliens will reach the House floor while Pelosi and her Democrats rule the U.S. House of Representatives. That's a reality that really bites.

Go get em Dana.

too bad the speaker of the house will never let this come to vote because she wants to shape america in the way she sees it,. not necessarily whats good for the country

We definitely need this. For one thing, SS should not be going to illegals. They obtained the employment and wages illegally and should not be compensated. Also they would be sending some of this money to another country and it would feed another economy instead of ours. And they should not get Medicare either. The fact that they may have paid into it is beside the point. If they dont want to pay into a system that they cant collect from, then they should think about entering legally.

MORE GOOD NEWS and ACTION FROM CALIFORNIA


Alert! HR 2287 would eliminate Social Security benefits for illegal aliens!

Representative Dana Rohrabacher (R-CA) has introduced the No Social Security for Illegal Immigrants Act of 2009. HR 2287 would prohibit wages earned while working illegally in this country from being credited towards Social Security benefits.

The Social Security system was designed to provide benefits for American workers and their families. Its intent was not to benefit those who break our immigration laws and labor laws.
