Why are feds quiet on ID fraud?

The Center for Immigration Studies (CIS) has produced a “backgrounder” in which it accuses the Social Security Administration and Internal Revenue Service of aiding and abetting illegal aliens who engage in theft identity to provide social security numbers to employers.
“Both turn a blind eye to massive Social Security number (SSN) fraud and take no action to stop it,” the paper alleges. “The Social Security Administration assigns SSNs to new-born infants that are being used illegally. The IRS demands that victims pay taxes on wages earned by illegal aliens using their stolen SSNs, while taking no action to stop the identity theft.”
Since, children do not use their SSNs for employment or to obtain credit, parents generally do not check their children’s credit histories, allowing a person using a child’s SSN to go undetected for years. Sometimes document vendors sell fraudulent identity packages using unassigned SSNs that are later assigned to a child, causing them problems before they are even born.

The federal E-Verify program, now mandated in only 14 states, can detect this fraud, CIS contends. Mandatory use of E-Verify would curb this and stop virtually 100 percent of child identity theft.

Speaking of E-Verify, last week the Senate took a few steps in the right direction toward closing America’s borders to illegals. Now the proposals will head to Nancy Pelosi’s open border House for either death or declawing. The already passed House bill, H.R. 2892, includes neither measure.

Now that you've read the above, do something for your self, the children in your life and ultimately our country. Check their & your credit report; it's cumbersome setting up but well worth the effort.
