I am writing to express my deep concern about the proposed DOGE cuts to Social Security, which are severely undermining this essential program. The elimination of the Social Security phone number and the closure of field offices create unnecessary hurdles for those who rely on these services the most—our elderly and disabled populations.
By forcing people to navigate convoluted systems or travel to remaining offices, DOGE is effectively cutting benefits for those in need. These changes disproportionately impact vulnerable individuals, making it even harder for them to access the support they rely on for their basic needs. This creates significant hardship, and for some, it could prove life-threatening.
I urge you to take immediate action to halt these cuts. Social Security is a lifeline for millions of Americans, and it is your responsibility to ensure it remains accessible and effective. Please stand with your constituents and oppose any measures that weaken this critical program.
Thank you for your time and attention to this urgent matter. I trust that you will prioritize the well-being of the people you represent.
