(Newsmax) Employers across the country may have to fire workers with questionable Social Security numbers to avoid getting snagged in a Bush administration crackdown on illegal immigrants.
The Department of Homeland Security is expected to make public soon new rules for employers notified when a worker’s name or Social Security number is flagged by the Social Security Administration.
The rule as drafted requires employers to fire people who can’t be verified as a legal worker and can’t resolve within 60 days why the name or Social Security number on their W-2 doesn’t match the government’s database.
Employers who don’t comply could face fines of $250 to $10,000 per illegal worker and incident.
Maybe the Feds are actually getting a clue, much like I hear John "campaign is like the Titanic" McCain, Lindsay Gramnesty, and John "let ’em in!" Kyl seem to be. Or maybe just a case of good old fashioned pandering. Whatever. As long as it gets done.
Blackbeard, last month 14% approval rater himself Defeatocrat Senaturd Dirty Harry Reid referred to our 12 – 20 million illegal aliens as ‘undocumented Americans’? And now 100% true red, white and blue Americans will be punished for being legitimate Americans by their own government? – So you say you wanna revolution 2007?
