I salute the gentleman from Arizona for having the courage to address this issue. Totalization with Mexico will harm the Social Security Trust Fund. It will be a major drain on this fund. They talk about 20 countries that we have a totalization agreement with. None of them have 5 million illegal workers in the country like Mexico does. We are better off to stop this snake here and now, cut off its head. Some say wait, let it get bigger. Let it bite us again. I say no. Cut off its head today by stopping the funding. If we grant an amnesty, and there are plenty of amnesty bills floating around, those illegals will be legal, and we will have a huge drain on the Social Security fund. I want to stand with the seniors in this country. I want to protect Social Security for United States citizens, and I want to preserve it for future generations, not drain it by allowing Mexico and illegals to get in it and suck a big truckload of money out of it. Stand up for Social Security and vote yes with the gentleman from Arizona (Mr. Hayworth).
