Social Security Identify Theft Prevention Act

Oh, I know. Let's make it even more difficult by placing the Real-ID requirements on the Social Security card. That's a great idea! Kids cannot go to school without a SS Card so they will grow up not knowing any better. Adults will have a hard time getting a job in some places without a SS Card. Let's see those so called "freedom folk" find their way out of this paper bag.

RTR Libertyville, IL - Under the guise of protecting seniors and our national security, Congressman Mark Kirk of Illinois 10th District and Peter Roskam of the 6th District are setting the wheels in motion for another crack at a national ID card. The “Social Security Identity Theft Prevention Act” (H.R. 5405) more appropriately titled the “Social Security Surveillance Act” was likely spurred by high opposition to the failing Real ID Act. This act would be an adequate run around to implement Real ID yet in another form. They claim their reasons for introducing this act is to curb the high rate of identity theft in Northern Illinois.
