And neither is #SocialSecurity or #Medicare.

An internal #Trump administration document reportedly shows that anti-fraud checks recently installed at the #SocialSecurity agency have found just two cases of potentially improper benefit claims out of more than 110,000—a rate of 0.0018%.
The documents, first reported Thursday by #Nextgov/FCW, further undercut President Donald Trump and billionaire Elon Musk's narrative that Social Security is brimming with fraud. #Musk falsely claimed in March that "40% of the calls into Social Security were fraudulent."

Social Security is facing the greatest threat of its nearly century-long existence. We have to fight back! Social Security Works is working to have as many rallies at Social Security offices as possible. If you can host one, email us at [email protected] and we can help with turn out, press coordination and inviting elected officials. We will be doing as many events as possible and building toward a large scale national day of action on April 5th with rallies happening across the country. Find or sign up to host a rally outside a Social Security office near you using this form. When we stand together, we cannot be defeated.
Frank Bisignano’s record at the private sector companies he has run is right in line with DOGE. He cut staffing to the bone and reportedly created toxic work environments. If he is confirmed, the now-toxic work environment at SSA will likely get worse.
Social Security needs a commissioner whose loyalty is to beneficiaries, not Elon Musk.
Call on the Senate to vote no on the nomination of Frank Bisignano for commissioner of the Social Security Administration!
