Are you on Social Security or about to sign up for it? And are you one of those people who say, “Oh, they would NEVER dare to touch Social Security!”
Well, guess what, folks? They’re touching it. They’re touching it hard.
On June 21st, Trump, Musk, and DOGE are shutting down the Missoula Social Security office! We Bitterrooters will have to travel over 100 miles to get help with our Social Security. Try doing that when you’re 89 years old and it’s a snowy day in January in Montana.
“Well, I’ll just phone Social Security.” No, you won’t. Starting March 31st, Trump, Musk, and DOGE are going to make people who can’t identify themselves on the Social Security Administration (SSA) website go to an office in person for help. And I repeat: The Missoula SSA office is being shut down in June!
“Well, no biggee. I’ll just drive to a Social Security office in Kalispell or wherever.” No, you won’t. Not if Trump SHUTS DOWN SOCIAL SECURITY COMPLETELY. Trump’s Social Security chief, Lee Dudek, just said that he would shut down Social Security entirely if Musk and his DOGE kids are not allowed full access to our Social Security information (including our name, phone number, home address, medical records, and worst of all, our bank accounts; Musk and DOGE have already stolen money right out of one person’s bank account after mistakenly declaring him dead!).
Lee Dudek said he would end Social Security after a judge on Thursday, March 20, issued a court ruling to kick Musk and DOGE out of our Social Security accounts.
The courts are trying to stop Trump, Musk, and DOGE. But a few judges can’t do it alone. We, the people, are the only ones who can save Social Security.
There will be protests here in the Bitterroot, and also in Missoula and across the country. Please join us to protest the destruction of Social Security. If you can’t join us in person, please call Steve Daines: 1 (202) 224-2651; Tim Sheehy: 1 (202) 224-2644; and Ryan Zinke: 1 (202) 225-5628 and demand that they get a spine and stand up to Trump to keep the Missoula Social Security office open and to do whatever it takes to save our Social Security.
