Totalization Agreement with Mexico

The United States and Mexico have negotiated a totalization agreement which would provide social security benefits to Mexican citizens working in the United States, potentially even if they were here illegally and even if they worked without a social security number or with a fraudulent number. Contact your Congressman and Senators and urge them to introduce, cosponsor, and support legislation that rejects this agreement. Click here for additional information.
