Dallas School District Providing Fake SSN's

Also, when investigators reviewed a sampling of personnel files, they learned that the fake numbers were entered on Department of Homeland Security and IRS forms. The forms are not transmitted outside the district but are made available to the appropriate federal agency upon request.

In July, the district discovered that 26 of the false numbers were in use after matching DISD employee Social Security numbers with the Social Security Administration database. The numbers were already being used in Pennsylvania. DISD officials did not know Thursday whether the practice had caused problems for anyone holding the legitimate numbers.

The district's investigative unit, called the Office of Professional Responsibility, began looking into the fake numbers after the Texas Education Agency's division of educator investigations advised the unit in July that it had discovered the district issuing false numbers in 2004.

That year, the TEA division became aware of the practice when DISD faxed copies of about 100 new Social Security Administration cards for foreign citizens – most of whom had been assigned district-issued numbers – and asked TEA to replace the old numbers, according to the investigative report. The state office told DISD at the time that it's illegal to make up Social Security numbers and pass them off as legitimate, the report says.

It's also illegal to cross the border without going thru proper channels by running thru the desert in the dark of night but hey, if they ignore that law, why would they care about the rest of our laws???? Do what you want to, that seems to be the new rule to live by

Do what you want to? Isn't that the Texas State Motto?

Maybe we should engage in house to house searches from the North in Canada and just move straight south?

Just newly recruited voters for the Democrats.

One of the side effects of the financial crisis seems to be that illegal immigration has slowed considerably. I heard a radio report the other day that said border crossings have slowed by 30% to 50% in the past three months. There are also some illegals who want to go back to Mexico. However, the smart ones know that it's far worse there.
