Comments on DHS SSA No-Match Rule Needed

On Wednesday, March 26th, DHS published it’s proposed No-Match rule in the Federal Register.  Although they did make small changes, they have basically re-submitted the same flawed rule which was preliminarily enjoined by the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California in September of last year. 
We now have less then 30 days to submit comments and let DHS know we oppose their rule.  We need to generate as many comments as we can.  The deadline to submit comments is April 25, that’s only a little more then 3 weeks away.  We need to act now.  Please forward this message as widely as possible.

Several model comments are posted on the LWIW website and instructions on how to submit comments.  Spanish comments will be available soon.
