Thousands Protest No-Match Letters?

From Democracy Now:
Immigration rights activists declared Wednesday [September 12] a national day of action against new immigration measures announced by the Department of Homeland Security last month. One of the rules converts Social Security "no match" letters into a tool of immigration enforcement. "No match" letters are sent to employers when a worker's stated social security number does not match records in government databases. ...

On Wednesday, thousands took to the streets in cities across the country against this pending crackdown that threatens the jobs of 8 million documented and undocumented workers. Milwaukee, Wisconsin had the largest turnout with an estimated 10,000 people observing a day of "No work, no school, no purchases."

  1. Illegal aliens should be deported, not supported.

    Aliens working under another person's SSN are committing identity theft and should be proscuted for it.

    The politicians, worthless sacks of excrement they are, are afraid to enforce immigration law.
