Maintain SSA communications access for vulnerable populations

To: Sen. Merkley, Sen. Wyden, Rep. Bentz

From: A verified voter in Myrtle Creek, OR

April 11

This reckless plan to consolidate all Social Security Administration communications on Elon Musk's X platform while gutting regional office staff must be stopped immediately. Cutting off traditional information channels and relying solely on a private social media site will deny millions of beneficiaries, especially seniors unfamiliar with these platforms, access to critical program details. Musk's efforts to reduce government workforces and enable misinformation spread make him an unacceptable arbiter of public services information. This administration's prioritization of corporate interests over its duty to the people cannot stand. Reverse this disastrous course of action at once.
