Biden Admin Quietly Handed 2 Million Illegals Social Security Numbers
The Biden administration has come under intense scrutiny after reports revealed that nearly two million illegal immigrants have been issued Social Security numbers (SSNs) since President Joe Biden took office. The staggering figure, buried within federal data, has raised significant concerns among conservatives, immigration watchdogs, and working-class Americans over the implications for national security, identity theft, and the sustainability of taxpayer-funded benefits.
According to information obtained and reviewed by The Daily Wire, over 2.1 million migrants who crossed the border illegally or were paroled into the country have received SSNs between fiscal years 2022 and 2024. The bulk of these numbers were issued to migrants released into the U.S. interior pending future immigration hearings—some years away.

Critics argue this unprecedented move signals a disturbing shift in federal immigration policy, where unlawful entry into the United States no longer serves as a deterrent from accessing key elements of American civil infrastructure. Social Security numbers are not merely identifiers; they are gateways to employment, banking, healthcare, and even voting in some jurisdictions.
“This is about far more than just numbers,” said a former senior DHS official. “It’s about fundamentally reshaping the population and shifting the balance of political power using taxpayer-funded systems.”
The numbers were revealed after the Social Security Administration (SSA) responded to inquiries from Republican lawmakers who had demanded transparency regarding how many parolees and border crossers were being issued these critical documents. Many of the SSNs were provided through Biden’s humanitarian parole programs, which the administration expanded aggressively to include individuals from countries such as Venezuela, Nicaragua, Cuba, and Haiti.
Representative Lance Gooden (R-TX), a vocal opponent of Biden’s open-border approach, said the practice “demonstrates how this administration is handing out the keys to the country to anyone who can make it across the border.” He added, “It’s a slap in the face to every law-abiding American and legal immigrant who followed the process.”
Despite being in the U.S. unlawfully, recipients of these SSNs can now access taxpayer-subsidized services and may even obtain driver’s licenses, enroll their children in public schools, and apply for welfare benefits in some states. While the administration defends the move as part of a humanitarian effort, opponents argue the mass distribution of SSNs to illegal migrants effectively normalizes illegal entry and undermines immigration enforcement.
The numbers also raise serious election integrity concerns. While federal law prohibits non-citizens from voting in federal elections, states like California and New York have enacted local measures allowing non-citizens to vote in school board and municipal elections. A valid SSN is often part of the documentation used to verify voter eligibility. Critics warn that the system is ripe for abuse.
Dr. Scott Jensen, a policy analyst and immigration researcher, warned that “this is a perfect storm for identity theft, fraud, and voting irregularities. The infrastructure wasn’t designed for this scale of misuse.”
The Biden administration has largely remained silent on the implications of the report. White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre deflected questions when asked by reporters, offering vague statements about the administration’s “compassionate and humane immigration system.”
But many Americans aren’t buying it. The administration’s refusal to enforce existing immigration laws, critics say, is driving chaos at the border while rewarding those who bypass legal procedures.
Conservative voters and immigration advocates argue the mass issuance of SSNs to non-citizens diminishes the value of American citizenship and burdens working families who are already struggling with rising inflation and higher taxes.
“The average American is footing the bill for individuals who broke our laws and are now benefiting from systems they never paid into,” said Dan Stein, president of the Federation for American Immigration Reform (FAIR). “This is a betrayal of the American worker.”
The news arrives as Biden continues to face record-low approval ratings on his handling of immigration. According to recent polling, a majority of Americans, including many independents and moderate Democrats, disapprove of the administration’s border policies.
Meanwhile, Republicans in Congress have introduced legislation to block the SSA from issuing numbers to non-citizens unless they are granted lawful permanent residency. Some lawmakers have even suggested freezing Social Security benefit adjustments until internal safeguards are put in place to prevent abuse of the system.
Biden’s critics argue that this policy is not the result of oversight, but a deliberate strategy designed to reshape the American electorate. By enabling illegal migrants to integrate into civic life and access benefits, the administration is creating long-term dependency while signaling to others around the world that illegal entry carries no consequences.
The United States has now reached a critical crossroads, where the line between legal and illegal has been intentionally blurred by an administration seemingly more focused on globalist objectives than defending the nation’s sovereignty.
For many, the question now is simple: How many more illegal entrants will be handed the keys to the American system before this administration is held accountable?
