John,
If you need help with your Social Security, the Social Security Administration is there to help.
…at least, it used to be. Donald Trump and Elon Musk forced out over 7,000 trained, experienced SSA workers, and have replaced them with an automated chatbot. Now, instead of speaking with someone who can help, seniors need to navigate a glitchy automated telephone menu.
New reporting from the LA Times reveals that the Social Security Administration tested the chatbot before Trump took office, and deemed it not good enough. Trump apparently had no such concerns:
Social Security Works is fighting to restore our Social Security Administration, and make sure everyone who pays into Social Security throughout their working lives can access the benefits they’ve earned! With Congress heading back next week, donate now to power this critical campaign.
The chatbot isn’t the only way AI has compromised Social Security. Earlier this week, the New York Times found that Elon Musk’s DOGE goons put the entire Social Security NUMIDENT file, which contains personal information about every single person with a Social Security number, on an insecure private server, possibly to use as training data for Musk’s AI.
Our champions in Congress are fighting back―but they can’t do it alone. We have been building massive resistance campaigns, with hundreds of events on Social Security’s 90th birthday. We’ve sent more than a million messages to Congress this year about Trump’s attacks on Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid.
We can’t give up.
Social Security works. Period. But Donald Trump wants to break it. We won’t let him! Chip in today!
Thank you,
Michael Phelan Social Security Works
