Your Right, Your Social Security Number YOUR RIGHT, YOUR PRIVACY, YOUR SOCIAL SECURITY NUMBER If you are like most of us in America today, you have become familiar with the social security number. This is a number that has been issued by the Social Security Administration, which may have been issued to you only days after your birth. The social security number has become synonymous with your date of birth and place of birth. Unfortunately, most Americans are not aware that the Social Security System along with it’s number was not established as a means for universal identification, but rather was a way for the Social Security Administration to be able to determine who has earned social security benefits in their work history. On June 8, 1934, President Franklin D. Roosevelt, in a message to the Congress, announced his intention to provide a program for Social Security. Subsequently, the President created by Executive Order the Committee on Economic Security, which was composed of Frances Perkins, Secretary of Labor, Chairwoman; Henry Morgenthau, Jr., Secretary of the Treasury; Henry A. Wallace, Secretary of Agriculture; Homer S. Cummings, Attorney General; and Harry L. Hopkins, Federal Emergency Relief Administrator.
