President Trump and his administration are threatening that promise on every front. From firing staff and closing offices to releasing Americans’ sensitive financial data to unqualified staff and planning behind the scenes to privatize the entire system, there is no question that this administration is willing to gamble away Granite Staters’ hard-earned retirement. That is backward, that is wrong, and that is something I will never support. “We cannot ignore the warning signs that Republicans cannot be trusted to safeguard Social Security or protect the millions who rely on it. I am committed to making Social Security work better for Granite Staters and ensuring that everyone can retire with dignity by protecting our seniors' hard-earned benefits for this generation and all those to come.” Background: Earlier this year, Pappas called on Acting Social Security Administration (SSA) Commissioner Leland Dudek to halt its plans to gut the SSA by laying off SSA employees and shuttering field or hearing offices. | 1 | 2026-03-30T01:40:41Z | 2026-04-07T14:57:50Z |
