Lawmakers fear executive amnesty will lead to
voting rights (Washington Times) – IRS Commissioner John Koskinen told Congress
on Wednesday that even illegal immigrants who didn’t pay taxes will be able to
claim back-refunds once they get Social Security numbers under President
Obama’s temporary deportation amnesty. The revelation — which contradicts what
he told Congress last week — comes as lawmakers also raised concerns Mr.
Obama’s amnesty could open a window to illegal immigrants finding ways to vote,
despite it being against the law. “While we may disagree about whether your
deferred action programs were lawfully created and implemented, we are
confident that we can all agree that these programs cannot be permitted to
impair the integrity of our elections,” Republican members of Congress from
Ohio wrote in a letter to Mr. Obama Wednesday, ahead of a hearing on the issue
in the House on Thursday. Mr. Obama’s new deportation policies, which carve
most illegal immigrants out of danger of being removed, and could proactively
grant as many as 4 million illegal immigrants work permits and Social Security
numbers, are increasingly under fire for ancillary consequences such as tax
credits and competition for jobs.
