Which suit? Abbott has about 30 against the feds now

Abbott has also said he will file suit if Obama issues an unlawful EO.

I think that's why an EO hasn't been issued.

[xzins]

Yes, but in my mind the issue was the social security access that Obama said he was granting. This granting of SSNs would enable these illegals to work, and those SSNs would then affect the employer verification system.

No changes to that system can be made without Congressional notice.

[Ray76]

Maybe. They might be able to wiggle out of it by (C)(iii), for example.

Good thinking. We need to stop this (meanwhile Congress goes on vacation)

 

GENERAL.—The person or entity must attest, under penalty of perjury and on a form designated or established by the Attorney General by regulation, that it has verified that the individual is not an unauthorized alien by examining—

	(i) a document described in subparagraph (B), or
	(ii) a document described in subparagraph (C) and a document described in subparagraph (D)

(B) DOCUMENTS ESTABLISHING BOTH EMPLOYMENT AUTHORIZATION AND IDENTITY. —

A document described in this subparagraph is an individual's—

(i) United States passport;

(ii) certificate of United States citizenship;

(iii) certificate of naturalization;

(iv) unexpired foreign passport, if the passport has an appropriate, unexpired endorsement of the Attorney General authorizing the individual's employment in the United States; or

(v) resident alien card or other alien registration card, if the card—

	(I) contains a photograph of the individual or such other personal identifying information relating to the individual as the Attorney General finds, by regulation, sufficient for purposes of this subsection, and
	(II) is evidence of authorization of employment in the United States.

(C) DOCUMENTS EVIDENCING EMPLOYMENT AUTHORIZATION. —

A document described in this subparagraph is an individual's—

	(i) social security account number card (other than such a card which specifies on the face that the issuance of the card does not authorize employment in the United States);
	(ii) certificate of birth in the United States or establishing United States nationality at birth, which certificate the Attorney General finds, by regulation, to be acceptable for purposes of this section; or
	(iii) other documentation evidencing authorization of employment in the United States which the Attorney General finds, by regulation, to be acceptable for purposes of this section.

(D) DOCUMENTS ESTABUSHING IDENTITY OF INDIVIDUAL.—

A document described in this subparagraph is an individual's—

	(i) driver's license or similar document issued for the purpose of identification by a State, if it contains a photograph of the individual or such other personal identifying information relating to the individual as the Attorney General finds, by regulation, sufficient for purposes of this section; or
	(ii) in the case of individuals under 16 years of age or in a State which does not provide for issuance of an identification document (other than a driver's license) referred to in clause (ii), documentation of personal identity of such other type as the Attorney General finds, by regulation, provides a reliable means of identification.

[xzins]

Also remember this in Diii about any card:

“”(iii) require any change in any card used for accounting purposes under the Social Security Act, 42 USC 301 “

[xzins]

Another thing to remember is that Obama did not pardon or reprieve them. He simply said he wouldn’t pursue them like he would criminal illegals. IOW, they are still outside the established system of acceptable employees. If he grants them SSNs, which he said he would do (or any other card), then he triggers the congressional review.

At least that’s the way I read it.

[Ray76]

If they create some non-SSN card for use by (C)(iii)....

But if they use a SSN card then I think you’ve got them.

We need a lawyer. Oh Congress... anyone home? Nope, no one home.

[xzins]

I think assigning Social Security numbers implies the availability of a card, don’t you? Also, there is the line that says “any” card

There’s also this: “As used in this paragraph, the
term ‘major change’ means a change which would—
“(i) require an individual to present a new card or
other document (designed specifically for use for this
purpose) at the time of hiring, recruitment, or referral,”

[Enterprise]

Ditto!

[Enterprise]

Just in case, someone should E-Mail this section to Abbott’s office in the event they need to amend the suit.

[Enterprise]

Both should get this.

[Carry_Okie]

Ingraham and then Cavuto.

[Enterprise]

Basically, we can safely assume that Perino is a bignorant itch.

[Ray76]

Is there “any change in any card used for accounting purposes under the Social Security Act”? Or is a new card “designed specifically for use for this purpose” (employing illegal aliens) being issued? I suspect the latter, but I don’t know.

[Liz]

Thanks for the heads-up, W/I/H. No question we have the law on our side as "Grubama" continues his unlawful ways---his unspeakable contempt for US citizens is astounding.

=============================================

Clearly, "Grubama" festered at being decisively trounced at midterms ---- saw that every "Grubercrat" who ran on amnesty was ousted.

"Grubama" sank to the lowest level any president has ever sunk----slapping down Americans, throwing the election results in our faces: "Oh, yeah, so you stupid people dont like amnesty? Then I'll make sure you're gonna get millions more in your midst."

Old curmudgeon,

“Xzins for congress”

Xzins,

Great find!

All y’all, ping to this thread; get the info to those congress people, ask if they’ve been told (per this law Xzins found) anything between two years ago Thursday and last Thursday about any kind of changes such as new cards etc

[WildHighlander57]

Good work!

State sues, supreme court gets the case, not lower courts where it can get tangled up for a long time.

[KC_Lion]

Great Find Xzins.

But counting on Ubama to follow a Law written before I was Born?

If they won't follow something written in 1787, why would they follow a law passed in 1986?

They Want these people here. WE don't, but the Powers at be do.
