He stated, "Trump tried to kill live phone support at Social Security – pushing seniors and people with disabilities into a broken digital maze. I joined 60+ @HouseDemocrats to stop him. Now SSA is backing down. We’ve stalled the cuts for now. I won’t stop fighting to protect the income New https://t.co/V9GlxpzMdl"
