Felon Navigators - Background Checks as the New Racism

Like most Sat-Navs, getting wrong directions is more than usual. Criminals are an extra. 
Lefties are frigging nuts. m/r

Background Checks as the New Racism | National Review Online

NOVEMBER 11, 2013  By John Fund

Leftists push to make it illegal for employers to ask, “Have you ever been convicted of a felony?” 

Obama administration has a schizophrenic attitude toward requiring people to go through criminal-background checks. Last week, Senator John Cornyn (R., Texas) grilled Kathleen Sebelius, the Health and Human Services secretary, about why the 45,000 “navigators” who assist people in signing up for Obamacare aren’t required to undergo a criminal-background check, even though they handle sensitive personal information.

“So a convicted felon could be a navigator and could acquire sensitive personal information from an individual unbeknownst to them?” Cornyn asked her. “That is possible,” said Sebelius, noting that states could always impose their own requirements — as some have done.

The risk that unscrupulous or untrustworthy people could hold federally funded jobs or own guns certainly concerns the Obama administration in other contexts. The Office of Personnel Management conducts more than 2 million background checks a year for federal jobs. The FBI conducted just shy of 20 million background checks on gun owners in 2012.
