Rewarding Illegal Earnings

The Congressional Budget Office (CBO) estimates that such legislation would add about $9 billion in new costs to Social Security and Medicare in the first 10 years alone.

"At the same time President Bush is calling on Congress to pass 'temporary guest worker' immigration legislation, he is also asking Congress for deep cuts to Medicare," states Ralph McCutchen, chairman of TREA Senior Citizens League (TSCL).

TSCL endorses the "No Social Security for Illegal Immigrants Act of 2007" (H.R. 736). For more information on TSCL, visit www.SeniorsLeague.org or call (800) 333-8725. Granting guest workers access to Social Security benefits could overburden the system caring for the nation's senior citizens.
