Hi,
Elon Musk and Donald Trump are breaking our Social Security system. Last
week, the acting head of the Social Security Administration (SSA) even
threatened to completely shutter the agency — putting the benefits
millions rely on in serious jeopardy.^1 Now, a reckless new so-called
“anti-fraud” policy that could deny benefits to people could come into
effect in a few weeks.^2
Trump’s government has gone after SSA with a complete disregard for the
income that seniors and people with disabilities need to live. Destroying
the government is the priority, no matter what happens to the American
people. Trump’s billionaire Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick even
suggested seniors wouldn’t complain if they didn’t receive their monthly
check.^3
Congress must take a stand and protect people receiving Social Security
from the reckless actions of this billionaire-dominated administration.

Musk’s DOGE (Department of Government Efficiency) team is firing employees
at SSA and closing local Social Security offices.^4
Things have gotten so bad that real people are having their Social
Security benefits cancelled by Musk’s cronies who only care about cuts.^5
We need to fight for Social Security right now, before Musk and DOGE delay
and cut benefits for millions of seniors.
