Nick Carter on Immigration Democratic Senate Challenger

Don't scapegoat immigrants by denying them benefits

A: No. The Social Security Protection Act of 2004 would prevent benefits being paid for work that was performed illegally. There is no need to oppose the President signing this bill. We all know that Social Security is in trouble but the answer is not to scapegoat immigrants. If we had a genuine long-term solution for Social Security nobody would be concerned about a totalization agreement with Mexico. Let's not get distracted from the big goals with side issues. We need genuine immigration reform as well as genuine Social Security reform. We need to solve the root causes of the problems we are facing. We can do that without fighting this totalization agreement and taking away benefits from laborers that everyone agrees they paid into the system. We need better solutions.
