Sign the petition: Social Security in "tailspin," faces even more job cuts at the hands of DOGE

TELL CONGRESS: Trump and Musk are taking a chainsaw to Social Security, spreading outlandish propaganda, firing even more workers, and threatening to delay or withhold checks. This is a disaster in the making unless Congress takes a stand. Sign the petition: Don't let Trump, Musk, and DOGE destroy Social Security! ADD YOUR NAME Harris, Musk and Trump aren't slowing down their attacks on our Social Security system. This Trump admin announced 7,000 more job cuts at Social Security just a few days ago, after weeks of firings and Musk's dangerous disinformation about the benefits program.1 Musk recently said that anyone complaining about a missed Social Security check is a "fraudster."2 The head of Social Security under Pres. Biden amplified warnings that benefit checks could be delayed by the reckless actions of Trump and Musk.3 Congress must stand up and save the benefits that tens of millions of Americans rely on. Sign the petition: Protect Social Security from Trump and Musk! ADD YOUR NAME 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 social safety net that has kept millions out of poverty is their priority, no matter what happens to the American people. We need to fight for Social Security right now, before Musk and DOGE delay and cut benefits for millions of seniors. Sign the petition: Don't let Musk, DOGE, and Trump destroy Social Security!
