Senate Upholds No-Match Letters

July 11, 2009 | In the News

The Senate unanimously approved, on July 8, Senator Vitter’s (R-LA) amendment to the Homeland Security spending bill, in direct opposition to President Obama’s desire to weaken immigration enforcement:

Sen. Vitter’s amendment would prevent the further delay to the Social Security Administration’s No-Match letter program. No-Match letters are sent out by the SSA notifying employers that they’ve reported income where the social security and the name of the employee don’t match. Often, a no-match occurs when an employer has hired an illegal alien who used falsified documents during the hiring process. The Bush Administration strengthened the No-Match program making it easier for employers to fire employees when a no-match occurs, but the Obama Administration has killed the the Bush rule.
