The Trump administration may use the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) to expose illegal aliens working in U.S. jobs, according to the New York Times. Three people familiar with discussions surrounding the IRS’s individual taxpayer identification number (ITIN) told the New York Times that the administration is suggesting that the agency “differentiate codes for undocumented immigrants from those of other people with ITINs.” ITINs are used by “people living abroad who owe U.S. taxes, some immigrants with legal status,” along with illegal aliens, according to the outlet: Currently, a relatively large pool of people can receive an ITIN to put on their…
