The Washington Post: White House insists Musk cuts to Social Security, Medicare won’t affect benefits

“The programs cost more than $2.9 trillion in fiscal 2024, meaning Musk is suggesting that up to 24 percent of their budget is fraud and waste. That figure is much higher than what has been identified by watchdogs.”


john—At a recent town hall, one issue kept coming up again and again: Social Security.

Washingtonians are worried about their benefits, and for good reason.

Elon Musk is calling Social Security and Medicare “mainly waste and fraud spending” and working overtime to ensure these benefits are cut.

But here’s the truth: He’s exaggerating fraud numbers to justify gutting these programs and taking away benefits millions of Americans rely on to survive—including many right here in Washington state.

Kim knows how critical it is to keep Social Security benefits solvent and intact for the people who rely on them. If Musk and his allies get their way, millions could see their benefits slashed. We can’t let that happen. If you agree that no one should lose their benefits because of Musk’s reckless agenda, add your name to our petition now. >> [link removed]
