Illegal Mexican workers will have a stronger legal claim to social security than citizens, under a new agreement between the United States and Mexico. The Senior Citizens League warns:
Mexican immigrants who illegally worked in the United States would have a stronger claim to U.S. Social Security benefits under a totalization agreement with Mexico than what U.S. citizens enjoy. This disturbing finding is from a new legal analysis performed for The Senior Citizens League (TSCL) of the pending U.S.- Mexico Totalization Agreement.
The pending totalization agreement has been signed by both the Mexican and U.S. Social Security Administrations, but has not yet been sent to Congress for approval. It provides Mexican beneficiaries with a contractual promise made between the government of the United States and the government of Mexico, the legal analysis says….
Yet no such contractual promise exists for U.S. citizens today, who have no legal recourse to any of the payroll taxes they pay into Social Security. The 1960 Supreme Court case, Flemming vs. Nestor, established the principle that entitlement of U.S. citizens to Social Security benefits is not a contractual right. Section 1104 of the 1935 Social Security Act specifically said: “The right to alter, amend, or repeal any provision of this Act is hereby reserved to the Congress.”
The League’s legal research and analysis found that as beneficiaries under the pending totalization agreement, Mexican workers would have legally enforceable rights in U.S. courts to obtain their benefits — rights that US citizens do NOT have….
The Senior Citizens League is a 501c(4) citizen activist organization with over 1.3 million members that grew out of a special project of The Retired Enlisted Association (TREA). These are people you can trust, mostly retired military personnel. So, if you are outraged that your government wants to use your tax money to lavish benefits on everyone but you, and you want to do something about it, you can be comfortable signing their petition:
We, The Undersigned, urge that you do everything possible to STOP both illegal alien Amnesty “guest worker” legislation and the U.S. Social Security Totalization Agreement with Mexico. Both of these would allow illegal immigrants, mostly from Mexico, to gain legal status and access to Social Security benefits. Worse, under both, these persons would be able to claim benefits for their relatives, children and other dependents, and our government has NO IDEA of the cost!Given the problems already facing Social Security, ANY new outlays will only speed up the day when benefits will be cut and taxed. You MUST stop these two outrageous attacks on Social Security.

This is the amount of incredulous influence the–OPEN BORDER–lobbyists (business power brokers and ethnic zealots)) have on certain Democratic devious rabble? Once again the senate top echelon have huddled secretly (BEHIND CLOSED DOORS), recklessly placing E-Verify worker identification system in jeopardy. The obnoxious R-O-P-E Senate group as its being called on the Internet and nationwide, who are marked as Reid, Obama, Pelosi Emmanuel have indifferently pushed American Workers in the background, allowing the millions of illegal aliens to take their jobs. They have driven into the ground amendments from appearing in the final Homeland Security “conference committee” bill. They eradicated–ANY CHANCE–of a Senate’s permanent authorization of the E-Verify program. These sleazy politicians are banqueting on the bones of unemployed US labor, without a second thought.
They have religiously under-funded, undermined the Senate’s mandate to beef up and complete the final 300 mile Mexican border fence. Then again it was never the original border wall as designed by Rep. Duncan Hunter. Illegal Aliens would have first had to scale the–FIRST–fence, run across the two lane highway for the Border Patrol vehicles, then scale an identical–SECOND FENCE. Under funded and weakened just like E-Verify, the police 287(g) arrest and detainment and ceasing the massive ICE raids. Finally the ROPE group strangled the Senate (already) passed ability of countrywide businesses to run their previous hires employees through E-Verify. So you can guess this is a harbinger to drop on the AMERICAN WORKER YET ANOTHER ULTIMATELY EXPENSIVE BLANKET AMNESTY. THOSE TAXPAYERS WILL BE FORCED TO PICK UP A TRILLION DOLLAR TAB. Be advised that Reid D-NV , Pelosi D-CA have one of the largest population of illegal immigrants in the country, who they are subservient too. Remember to expend your frustration and anger at 202-224-3121on your lawmakers. They are juggling with millions of American Workers job lifeline, by pandering to people who shouldn’t even be here?
MY SUGGESTION IS DON”T BUY ANY SERVICES FROM BUSINESS THAT DOESN’T DISPLAY THE E-VERIFY PLACARD. Remember the real conniving happens in rooms hidden from the public awareness in conference committees. In addition, Remember Harry Reid as an incumbent Senator who carries the ugly stain of being anti-American Worker, Anti-Sovereignty must not be re-elected. Speaker Pelosi must go? So must Emmanuel? They have proved they cannot be trusted As NUMBERSUSA president says,” With no chance now of E-Verify dying in any minute, because they couldn’t annul the 3 year extension? The pro-amnesty forces no longer can try to use it as a bargaining chip. States, counties, cities and businesses can now be quite confident that they can set policy based on the E-Verify program being around.” IT’S NOT PERMANENT YET NO THANKS TO ROPE. This group has given preference to illegal workers instead of the 15 million authorized AMERICAN WORKERS. COMPREHEND MORE OF THE CORRUPTION THAT CANNOT BE DENIED BY POLITICIANS AT JUDICIAL WATCH. NUMBERSUSA will explain in detail the consequences, that includes the 2010 Census, Health Care, ACORN, Local police alien enforcement, hidden welfare programs, Anchor babies-Birthright citizenship, criminals amongst the illegal immigration occupiers. CAPSWEB for OVERPOPULATION information. Read the immigration enforcement–GRADING–of each and every one of them at NUMBERSUSA.
