Denounce Republican Attacks on Social Security

Republicans are quietly dismantling Social Security—through underfunding, misinformation, and renewed calls for privatization. As the program marks its 90th anniversary, it’s facing one of the most coordinated threats in decades.

Instead of expanding access or modernizing the system, Republican lawmakers are slashing staff, closing field offices, and letting wait times spiral out of control. These cuts are straining the entire Social Security system, leaving millions of seniors, people with disabilities, and veterans struggling to get the help they need.

SSA Commissioner Frank Bisignano—appointed by Donald Trump—has come under fire for misleading Congress about the agency’s performance. Senator Elizabeth Warren recently accused him of manipulating data to hide just how poorly SSA is serving the public. The American people deserve honesty and accountability—not deception.

We must denounce these attacks for what they are: a coordinated effort to weaken Social Security and lay the groundwork for its destruction. Public outrage is our most powerful tool to stop this campaign before it’s too late.

At the same time, Republican leaders and right-wing think tanks are reviving plans to privatize Social Security. They want to hand retirement security over to Wall Street, putting guaranteed benefits at the mercy of market crashes and corporate greed.

Social Security isn’t an “entitlement.” It’s a fundamental promise, earned through a lifetime of work. It keeps 22 million Americans out of poverty each year and is overwhelmingly popular across party lines. Yet Republicans continue to treat it like a problem to eliminate instead of a pillar of our democracy.

Add your name to demand an end to the GOP’s sabotage of Social Security. Our future depends on it.
