Congressman threatens company: 'Check the validity of your employees' SS #'s and WE'LL PROSECUTE YOU!' |
It's EXACTLY this kind of insanity -- no, downright TREACHERY,
methinks -- which is having a profound effect on the American People
and causing the entire "system" to become THOROUGHLY DE-LEGITIMIZED in
their eyes!
The threat by a U.S. Congressman to an American company that if the
company checks the mismatched -- and almost certainly FRAUDULENT, in
most instances -- Social Security numbers of some of its employees the
government will prosecute the company (!) ranks in its level of
in-your-face treason only with the proposed law now being pushed by
reconquista assemblypersons in California to return to their owners the
impounded vehicles of illegally-driving/uninsured/unregistered illegal
aliens -- and ONLY of such drivers -- in 48 hours, while maintaining
the traditional policy of holding the vehicle for 30 days in cases in
which the vehicles' owners are licensed legal-U.S.-citizen drivers.
(And no, I', NOT making this up -- do the research yourself!)

Cintas warned against firing immigrant force
By Jerry Seper
THE WASHINGTON TIMES
November 28, 2006
A Mississippi Democrat in line to become chairman of the House Homeland
Security Committee has warned the nation's largest uniform supplier it
faces criminal charges if it follows a White House proposal to recheck
workers with mismatched Social Security numbers and fire those who
cannot resolve the discrepancy in 60 days.
Rep. Bennie Thompson said in a letter to Cintas Corp. it could be
charged with "illegal activities in violation of state and federal law"
if any of its 32,000 employees are terminated because they gave
incorrect Social Security numbers to be hired.
"I am deeply troubled by Cintas' recent policy change regarding the
Social Security Administration's 'no match' letters," Mr. Thompson said
in the Nov. 2 letter. "It is my understanding that hundreds of Cintas'
immigrant workers have received these letters. I am extremely concerned
about any potentially discriminatory actions targeting this community."
In June, President Bush proposed new guidelines concerning
"no-match" letters from the Social Security Administration, saying he
wanted to make it easier for employers to verify workers' eligibility
and continue to hold them accountable for those they hire.
The Department of Homeland Security followed up on that
announcement yesterday, formally releasing new regulations to help
businesses comply with hiring requirements intended to reduce the
hiring of illegal aliens -- including setting guidelines for businesses
when handling "no-match" letters from the Social Security
Administration.
The proposed regulation is subject to a 60-day public comment
period.
"Most businesses want to do the right thing when it comes to
employing legal workers," said Homeland Security Secretary Michael
Chertoff. "These new regulations will give U.S. businesses the
necessary tools to increase the likelihood that they are employing
workers consistent with our laws.
"They also help us to identify and prosecute employers who are
blatantly abusing our immigration system."
But Mr. Thompson called the "no-match" letters a threat to workers
who fail to reverify their information and called Cintas' actions a
"rash enactment of a proposed DHS regulation." He said that by
implementing "this incomplete regulation," Cintas could be in violation
of federal immigration law.
The seven-term congressman also said before the proposal becomes
law, it must go through a rule-making process, "which could radically
change the regulation or kill it all together."
Cintas has issued letters to 400 employees in five states telling
them they will be indefinitely suspended if they cannot resolve their
mismatched Social Security number within 60 days.
"Cintas, like all employers, has a legal obligation to ensure all
employees are legally authorized to work in the U.S.," the firm said in
a statement. "Cintas has not terminated any employees due to the Social
Security mismatches and plans to continue its policy of placing these
employees on indefinite leave until they produce the required
documentation."
In his letter, Mr. Thompson said his "apprehension" over the
proposed policy was echoed by the Equal Employment Opportunity
Commission, which said the proposal could result in "circumstances in
which employers have incentives to take actions that violate ...
non-discriminatory provisions."
As Homeland Security Committee chairman, he would set the panel's
agenda. Earlier this month, he also said Democrats planned to "revisit"
legislation mandating 698 miles of fencing on the U.S.-Mexico border
and might seek to scrap the plan.
Under existing rules, when a Social Security number does not match
a name on a tax or employment eligibility document, the government
sends a "no-match" letter asking that the discrepancy be resolved. Of
250 million wage reports the government receives each year, as many as
10 percent belong to employees whose names do not match their Social
Security numbers.
"Identifying businesses that are habitually flagged for submitting
mismatched Social Security numbers would bolster our worksite
enforcement efforts," Mr. Chertoff said.

freedom in the minds of men."
-- Samuel Adams
..
"Unfortunately, the majority of illegal aliens who are here are engaged
in criminal activity. Identity theft, use of fraudulent social security
numbers and green cards, tax evasion, driving without licenses
represent some of the crimes that are engaged in by the majority of
illegal aliens on a daily basis merely to maintain and hide their
illegal status. In addition, violent crime and drug distribution and
possession is also prevalent among illegal aliens. Over 25% of today's
federal prison population are illegal aliens. In some areas of the
country, 12% of felonies, 25% of burglaries and 34% of thefts are
committed by illegal aliens."

Subcommittee on immigration, Border, Security and Claims [Note: 99% of
warrants for murder in Los Angeles, California -- the USA's 2nd
most-populous city -- are for illegal aliens]

Which is one more reason why Thompson should never have been elected to Congress.
