| Tell Congress: We urge you to protect and fully fund Social Security. Please oppose all efforts to weaken, cut, or privatize Social Security. |
The Trump administration's vicious attacks on Social Security threaten its very existence. The chief data officer at the Social Security Administration (SSA) just reported that DOGE uploaded Social Security data to a cloud account that could expose the sensitive information of 300 million people, including health diagnoses, income, banking information, familial relationships and personal biographic data.
And after months of slashing funding and staff at the SSA, the White House now admits that Trump's big budget law includes a "backdoor way for privatizing Social Security."
Trump's cuts, firings, incompetence, and destructiveness could shatter Social Security — a program that 61% of people who receive benefits said that they could not survive without. Congress must do everything in their power to protect, restore, and fully fund Social Security.

Trump claimed over and over again that he wouldn't touch Social Security. But his big ugly budget not only slashed Medicaid and handed tax breaks to billionaires — it also set in motion a plan to undermine Social Security.
His administration has even politicized the SSA. After the budget law passed, the SSA sent an email to beneficiaries with misleading information about taxes in order to celebrate Trump's legislation.
Head of the SSA under President Biden, Martin O'Malley, warned that the program is on the brink of collapse after Trump and DOGE's cuts.
The rapid dismantling of Social Security calls for the urgent attention of our lawmakers. Congress must take a stand to save our most critical benefits program before the Trump administration dismantles it.
Sign the petition: Urge Congress to move quickly to save Social Security!
