It is our duty to use every power and every tool to eliminate that kind of fraud.
I was so disturbed some time ago to discover that many prisoners, who are by law barred from receiving most of these Federal benefits, were actually collecting Social Security checks while locked up behind bars.

The Order is designed to deny these traffickers the benefit of any assets subject to the jurisdiction of the United States.
I shall continue to exercise the powers at my disposal to apply economic sanctions against significant foreign narcotics traffickers and their violent and corrupting activities as long as these measures are appropriate.
