Alex Lawson and his team at @socialsecurityworks.org are right — you earned your Social Security, and Elon Musk has no right to destroy the system sending your checks.

Americans pay into Social Security for their entire working lives, and they must have access to the benefits they've earned.
Hear from Ken, a retired teacher, on why Social Security matters to him.
I am deeply saddened by the passing of Pope Francis. He will be remembered for his compassion for the vulnerable, his devotion to his faith and for his steadfast belief in a better tomorrow. Pope Francis touched the lives of countless people from all faiths and backgrounds. May he rest in peace.
Wishing you and your family many blessings during this holiday season. Peace be with you.
Congressional Republicans want to cut Medicaid for everyday Americans just to put more money in the pockets of the richest people in the world. It’s outrageous, it’s wrong, and we need your voice.
If you rely on Medicaid, share your story and join the fight.
Millions of Americans rely on Medicaid for health care coverage — including children, veterans, seniors, and expecting mothers.
Our tools to fight back are limited right now, but your voice matters. If you are impacted by this administration's plans to cut Social Security, join us & make your voice heard.
After this administration tried to limit phone services at the Social Security Administration, we sounded the alarm & they backed off their phone cuts.
Make no mistake, your Social Security is your money.
Senate Democrats aren't going to stop fighting until Elon Musk's cuts to the Social Security Administration are restored.
Millions of students heading to college this fall depend on federal financial aid to pay for their degree. These are students studying to be nurses, teachers, business owners, and more.
Our communities need their skills, and President Trump is making it even harder for them to pay for college.
President Trump said he wouldn't touch Social Security. But then he unleashed Elon Musk and his DOGE boys to cut services that help our seniors get their hard-earned benefits.
It's unbelievable.
Here's the information Elon Musk and his DOGE buddies want to know about you.
They're trying to violate the privacy of every American in this country.
Hardworking families are going to suffer because of the Trump Tariff Tax.
Last night, Republicans voted to give tax breaks to billionaires at the expense of the American people.
@captmarkkelly.bsky.social is right — it's a bad deal.
Senate Democrats proposed amendments last night to protect the key programs this administration is trying to cut.
Instead of supporting Social Security or SNAP benefits — like so many Republicans said they do — they voted against them.
The American people deserve better.
The front pages of Trump’s Tariffs Tax. This is going to make the costs of everything you buy higher.
Anyone, anyone.......
Make no mistake, working families will end up paying the Trump Tariff Tax.
When he promised he was going to bring costs down, he lied.
President Trump already tried to cut staff at the World Trade Center Health Program and only backed off when we demanded a reversal.
Now, they're cutting key staff again. It's despicable, and we must come together to reject these unAmerican cuts.
President Trump said it himself: he doesn't care if the new car you need is more expensive.
Whether it's skyrocketing prices, cuts to Medicaid, or missing Social Security checks, this administration has made it clear — they don't care.
