Social Security Crisis: Long Lines, App-less Delays, and D.O.G.E.

Amidst growing wait times and service disruptions, Social Security offices across the country are facing a crisis. With long lines forming before sunrise, many individuals are struggling to secure an appointment amidst mounting frustrations. A significant portion of those seeking assistance find themselves unable to book a slot online or over the phone, leading to longer waits for service. 70 million Americans rely on Social Security benefits – including retirees, children, and people with disabilities – but current system failures are creating delays and chaos, fueled by recent D.O.G.E. downsizing efforts.
