Trump forced out more than 8,000 Social Security staffers -- and claims that customer service is 'better than ever.' Senator Patty Murray talked with people outside the Social Security office in Seattle to see if that's true. WATCH HERE::: #socialsecurity #SSA @murray.senate.gov @democrats.org

"The Trump administration is lying to us. Shocker!" says U.S. Senator Patty Murray. The #SSA claims that customer service has improved. But a new investigation by Fortune shows that massive #SocialSecurity staffing cuts are making it harder for seniors to access their earned benefits.

Republicans and some Democrats say we need a commission to decide the future of #SocialSecurity. But that's really the job of lawmakers themselves. A commission would give individual congress members 'political cover' for cutting benefits. And that's not good. @repbrendanboyle.bsky.social
