Download the PDF and look at the list of acceptible documentation yourself. The SS card (under "documents that establish employment eligibility") only works presented in conjunction with one of the "documents that establish identity" -- e.g. state issued ID.
There are documents which establish both: Passports, for instance, and Permanent Resident Cards.
Not only is this the law now, it was the law 15 years ago when I started temping.
Oh, yeah, since I spent 11 years regularly getting new jobs, I carried the necessary I-9 documentation on my person at all times.
