Social Security Data Is Openly Being Shared With DHS to Target Immigrants
  • The Social Security Administration has officially confirmed that it has been sharing sensitive data regarding immigrants with the Department of Homeland Security for several months. This revelation highlights ongoing concerns about privacy and the potential targeting of immigrant populations, as the data could be used for enforcement actions.
  • This development raises significant implications for the immigrant community, as it may lead to increased surveillance and enforcement measures by DHS. The sharing of such sensitive information could undermine trust in government agencies and deter immigrants from seeking necessary services, fearing repercussions.
