On the recordDecember 1, 2025
A mother testifying before the Ways and Means Committee told us how it took ``hours of effort over months'' to protect her daughter from identity theft and that ``the threat will never completely go away unless she is assigned a new Social Security number.'' This mother had to battle with the SSA after her infant daughter's Social Security number was compromised. Unfortunately, the story is all too common for millions of Americans who have had their Social Security numbers stolen or misused each year. By taking swift action today, we can prevent a lifetime of financial harm to American children across the country. Mr. Speaker, I urge my colleagues to support this legislation, and I yield back the balance of my time.
