Fema Employment
Is Benny Thompson really the person we want heading the House Homeland Security Committee?
Shortly after the election Benny Thompson stated that his first order of business would be to review the border fence with an eye towards scrapping the entire project. Now it comes to light that he has also sent a letter to Cintas Corp. regarding workers who were placed on unpaid leave because the Social Security numbers they provided for employment came back on the government No Match list. In the letter he threatens possible legal action under federal discrimination statutes if these workers are not reinstated. Since when is taking action against people who falsify information in order to gain employment a form of discrimination? Again, is this really the person we want in charge of the Homeland Security Committee. The link is that the border security and illegal immigration fall at least partially under the juridiction of Homeland Security. Securing our borders and dealing with illegal immigration are primary concerns for the nation and both are apparently under attack by a person who is going to be overseeing funding for these efforts.
