Feenstra Votes to Punish and Deport Illegal Immigrants who Defraud Social Security

January 31, 2024

WASHINGTON, D.C. – Today, U.S. Rep. Randy Feenstra (R-Hull) voted for the Consequences for Social Security Fraud Act, which would ensure that illegal immigrants who defraud social security are punished accordingly and swiftly deported.

“Americans who have earned social security benefits through a lifetime of hard work deserve to receive their paycheck on time and in full. Unfortunately, President Biden’s wasteful spending and open-border policies jeopardize the long-term solvency of social security and wellbeing of our seniors and our families,” said Rep. Feenstra. “That’s why I voted for legislation to punish and deport illegal immigrants who defraud social security. I will not tolerate individuals who breaks our laws and steal from American taxpayers. As a strong advocate for border security and fiscal responsibility, this legislation will help us protect precious dollars for social security recipients while holding illegal immigrants accountable for committing fraud and other despicable crimes.”
