State employee fired for blowing the whistle on illegals getting social services!

[MDCivilServant]

Why does anyone want to know the identity of a poster?

Should everyone here post their name? What difference does it make? Is it just curiosity or is there another agenda?

[bmore_ken]

One heck of a lawsuit coming on this one.

Really? This happened over 2 years ago

Any word on that lawsuit?

[Jim F]

America is better off because of the courage of whistle blowers. I am looking forward to this interview.

"The former state employee talks with S&F about why she was fired by her state agency for blowing the whistle on illegals getting social services."

I didn't get the interview when I clicked the link, just Sean & Frank's web page. However, I did find this in the S & F articles section. From 11/15/12:

http://www.aim.org/special-report/ma...m_medium=email

" Paulette Faulkner, an employee of Montgomery County’s Office of Child Support Enforcement, sent an email to Governor O’Malley in 2009, describing routine cases of illegals attempting to collect welfare benefits. She received a stern warning from then Department of Human Resources Deputy Secretary Stacy Rodgers not to complain.

Rodgers, who shares a seat with Torres on the Council for New Americans, told Faulkner to accept CASA de Maryland ID cards as legitimate identification. Faulkner refused, knowing that to follow that order would break the law. A short time later she was fired. She found no support from any legislator and was refused unemployment compensation. In the meantime, an audit revealed some 52,000 welfare recipients using invalid or non-existent social security numbers. A 2011 audit found similar problems."

Child support enforcement employees don't deal with approval of welfare benefits as part of their job description.

Doubtless.

My understanding is that the thread is about whistle blowing.

[octoburn]

Any word on that lawsuit?

I was wondering the same, given that it is now coming up on a year since this story was broken on WCBM and Virginia heard through the grapevine that she had secured a lawyer.

I don't know what is happening with Ms. Faulkner.

But I am not happy illegals are apparently getting food stamps. The money is acting like a magnet for illegals. The unemployment rate for young inner city residents is too high to be spending tax money for benfits for illegals.

http://www.breitbart.com/Big-Governm...or-Food-Stamps

"A government watchdog group has discovered that the United States government is advising Spanish-speaking residents that they need not declare their immigration status to qualify for food stamps."

[TFinan]

There is only 1 side to this story. The State Employee got Terminated because they exposed a Cover-Up involving the Leaders at Social Services and O'Malley. Money and services that should be going to the kids and families of LEGAL U.S. Citizens is being squandered on Illegals. O'Malley is allowing State Tax dollars to support his favorite voting group, the illegals. O'Malley, O'Bama's wigger, is guilty of aiding and abetting groups to violate Federal Laws. The Feds. don't care because O'Bama's Administration is based on a Fraud from his 1st being placed on the Ballot. Baltimore Coty doesn't care because they get Federal money if the Illegals settle in the City. The only people that care are the tax payer who gets screwed and it is the tax payer who will have to stop the invasion from Mexico and that will happen the day O'Malley completes his reign of terror on the Maryland Legal Citizen. Marylanders will then be looking for the illegals.

This is the actual translated statement:

A statement on the flyer—emphasized in bold and underlined—reads, “You need not divulge information regarding your immigration status in seeking this benefit for your children.”

bold added by me.

Unless the children are born in the US, they should not be eligible for benefits.

[bmore_ken]

Unless they have a child born here, they aren't entitled. That's the part the usual suspects like to leave out

Wrong

On October 22nd she was called into Child Support Enforcement Director John Castellano’s office. The Director accused her of failing to inform them that she had a website for her Central Committee campaign listing her office phone. He threatened punitive action.

Faulkner was fired for having a campaign website with the office number on it.

That's right, let more children starve to death -- that'll teach 'em.

Birther opinion....enough said!

Which is also a violation of campaign finance laws and a felony!!!!! Similar to Mitch McConnell's stunt!

[octoburn]

One heck of a lawsuit coming on this one.

From what I have heard through the grapevine, Ms Faulkner has secured a lawyer. Someone listening to the WCBM interview called in and wanted to meet with her.

Any word on that lawsuit?

And still no word on this lawsuit, WCBM's follow~up, or further actions by[ I]Help Save Maryland[/I], Delegate Pat, or anyone else about this "heck of a lawsuit" that was forthcoming as reported a year ago this week?

[bmore_ken]

Somehow I'm not surprised

[ybnormal]

This is just the tip of the iceberg. Ask members in the mediical field about all the "freebies" afforded illegals and those here on temporary visas. Appalling.

[Jim F]

I had documentation that showed undeniably that a recipient had committed fraud with the Social Security office, and that automatically gave them eligibility for state medicaid. I was told that if I valued my job I would not share that information with the Social Security office.....

" - fraudulent use of Social Security numbers is no problem for the so-called “DREAM”-ers. The feds reassured them last fall that they wouldn’t have to disclose how many and which phony or stolen Social Security numbers they’ve used."
