Hard work is rewarded in the country. not penalized. Following the law and advancing on the path toward earned citizenship should be encouraged. not punished. For example. the children of an undocumented worker who has worked for 20 years and who has paid into the system would be denied all Social Security benefits if their parent dies before becoming a legal resident or citizen. Even though the children are citizens. they would be denied the benefit their parent worked many years and contributed to earn. Not only is this unfair. but it risks encouraging others in similar situations to stay in the shadows and not to pay into the Social Security Trust Fund.
