Senate Rewards Illegal Workers with Social Security Benefits
Illegal aliens who become official citizens of the U.S.A. (something that would happen next week if the president and most of the Senate could have it their way), will be rewarded for their longevity as criminals in the workplace.
The Senate shot down an amendment (S. 3985) offered by Sen. John Ensign (R.-Nev.) today that would have made it illegal for immigrants to count their years as illegal workers toward the 10-year U.S. work requirement necessary to receive Social Security benefits.
So much for justice -- the bill was defeated 50-49 (Jay Rockefeller (D.-W.V) didn't vote) which means that illegals will be rewarded for their misconduct and placed ahead of those trying to enter and work in America legally.

The GOP traitors are: Sens. Brownback, Chafee, Dewine, Lugar, McCain, Specter, Stevens, Voinovich.
But, as Mary Katherine Ham points out, there won't be any Social Security left for most of them anyway.
I believe Soc. Security knows true facts
WesternMa,
If it is true, that the Soc. Security Admin. "knows" the facts, I cannot fathom the whys of them not righting all these wrongs. I don't know what it was that was referred to, but something about the law prohibits them from giving the IRS the truthful facts.
If I heard that correctly, there is absolutely no good reason under this sun, for anything prohibiting them from giving information to the IRS.
If Lou Dobb's said information was not being shared among the agencies, then I probably heard it correctly. I don't know who among the Congressman are perhaps looking into it but it sure would solve a lot of this illegal immigrant use of stolen Soc. Sec. Nos., fraudulent documents, etc. and they could catch the "felons" and we could be spared the agony of much of this.
It would also nip the bags of wind in the Senate. Boy, would that be refreshing.
