Did you see Michael's message yesterday? Trump's war on seniors is rolling on, undeterred. His plan has been clear from the jump: make it more and more frustrating to access Social Security benefits, then use the chaos to privatize the system and hand the $2.7 trillion trust fund to Wall Street speculators. We need to speak up NOW before it's too late. Can you pitch in to stop Trump from closing Social Security offices?

-- MICHAEL'S EMAIL --
John,
New internal documents at the Social Security Administration reveal plans to shutter Social Security offices, and drive 15 million people away from in-person service, and onto their AI-powered phone system.
In the Daily Beast’s words:1
Closing local Social Security offices is another scheme to take your earned benefits from you. Republicans want to make it harder to access Social Security, so that fewer people receive it. We can stop them―but we need to fight back NOW! Can you chip in $7?
More than 10,000+ people apply for Social Security every day. We should be making that process easier for them, not harder! When and how to apply for Social Security benefits is one of the most important financial decisions most Americans make. Instead of providing the world-class service that Americans have come to expect from the Social Security Administration, Donald Trump’s administration wants to make getting help with Social Security as annoying as calling the cable company.
They’ve already forced out more than 7,000 staff at the Social Security Administration. This has led to increased delays, backlogs, and even missed checks. When the Washington Post investigated2 the phone line, they found many people who couldn’t get through on the phones turned to their local Social Security offices to ensure that they were seen. Now, Trump wants to take that away from us too.
We can stop this plan. But we need to push back swiftly. Social Security Works is rallying our champions in Congress to fight back. Can you fund our campaign with a donation today?
