Social Security Checks Could Stop Going Out by April, Ex-Head Warns...
On Monday, top Senate Democrats—including Sens. Chuck Schumer of New York, Patty Murray of Washington, and Ron Wyden of Oregon—held a press conference to denounce the Trump administration and DOGE for trying to “destroy” the agency.
“It is hard to believe that the Trump administration wants to cut Social Security, but that’s what’s happening,” Schumer said.
“We’re in a pincer move that shows just what they’re up to,” he said, noting the agency’s plan to fire 7,000 workers and Musk’s recent comments decrying the program as a “Ponzi scheme.”
Democrats in the House have also sounded the alarm.
“The Trump administration is putting Social Security benefits at risk by firing the staff who help beneficiaries and closing down the offices that serve communities across the country,” House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries said in a statement earlier this week.
