An open letter to the U.S. Congress

Stop Elon from transitioning all Social Security communication to X.

1 so far! Help us get to 5 signers!

The Social Security Administration's decision to exclusively use X (formerly Twitter) for communications poses significant risks and ethical concerns. Firstly, entrusting a private platform run by a single individual with disseminating vital information about a crucial government program is unwise. This grants Elon Musk's company an undue monopoly and raises issues of censorship, bias, and potential misuse of sensitive data. Moreover, many Americans, particularly vulnerable populations like the elderly and those with disabilities, may not have access to or feel comfortable using X. A government agency should prioritize equitable access to information through official, non-partisan channels. I urge you to reconsider this ill-advised policy and revert to using multiple traditional and accessible platforms to communicate about Social Security. The risks of consolidating communication on a partisan private platform far outweigh any perceived benefits.
