Protect Social Security from DOGE's Planned Workforce Cuts

I am deeply concerned about DOGE's planned workforce reductions of approximately 7,000 employees at the Social Security Administration (SSA). These cuts, coupled with the dissolution of key offices like the Office of Transformation and the Office of Civil Rights and Equal Opportunity, pose a grave threat to the SSA's ability to effectively administer benefits to over 72 million Americans who rely on Social Security. Interruptions or loss of these critical benefits would be catastrophic for millions of vulnerable individuals and families. It is imperative that any funding agreement reached includes provisions to halt the illegal firing of federal workers and rein in DOGE's overreach into government agencies. Failure to do so risks the collapse of a social safety net system that has reliably provided for our nation's retirees, disabled individuals, and their families for over 80 years. DOGE's actions jeopardize a lifeline for those most in need of assistance. I urge you to use your leverage as a legislator to protect the SSA from these dangerous cuts and office closures. Ensuring the continued, uninterrupted delivery of Social Security benefits must be a top priority. The well-being of millions of Americans depends on your decisive action to safeguard this essential program.
