Musk-proof Social Security

Pamela, Because of a dedicated workforce of union employees at the Social Security Administration, Social Security has paid benefits in full and on time for nearly a century. But Elon Musk and Donald Trump have fired 7,000 of those workers, and announced plans to close dozens of field offices all over the country. And now even Trump's Commerce Secretary is warning that benefit payments could be missed. We need to Musk-proof the Social Security Administration! That's why the Progress America is teaming up with Social Security Works and AFGE Council 220, who represent Field Office workers, on a package of legislation to protect our earned benefits! Rep. John Larson (D-CT), ranking member of the House Social Security subcommittee, has introduced two new bills designed to protect our Social Security system from Musk and Trump: The Keeping Our Field Offices Open Act will put a moratorium on the closure of Social Security Field Offices for the rest of the Trump Administration The Protecting Americans' Social Security Data Act will block Elon Musk and his cronies' access to sensitive beneficiary data and strengthen oversight and civil penalties for any privacy and disclosure violations of Social Security beneficiaries' personal information In addition, Larson has introduced a Resolution of Inquiry to compel President Trump to disclose to Congress information about DOGE activity at SSA and any plans to close field offices or cut staff. Congress must pass all three pieces of legislation immediately! Tell every member of Congress: Support Rep. John Larson's legislative package to protect Social Security from Donald Trump and Elon Musk!
