You took 600.00 dollars a month from me.. I’m devastated. I got 212.000 in w2g’s at emerald queen in tacoma washington. I don’t have a penny to show for it . I gave it back to them . It was a graduate thing to generate the 212,000 it was a give and take . Had I knowing that it was going to hurt me I’d never would have done that . I took out 32,000 out of my checking account now I have nothing. Except know I have 600,00 dollars a month tooken from me .

How do SS recipients contact Lee Dudek, Acting commissioner of Social Security? I have been a victim of WEP yet have not received any letter from SSA nor any retroactive automatic payment to my bank account that is accurately on file with SSA. Local SS offices do not know how to contact the separate department that is processing our payments and are telling us there is nothing they can do because they are not part of that processing department. I am entitled to find out WHY my WEP has not been adjusted and also entitled to the transparency of being given an explanation. If there has been an error, I want to know how and when SSA is going to remedy it. My local SSA office does not know how to investigate, nor who to contact within their agency, to remedy and expedite a correction regarding Soc Sec Fairness Act monies. PLEASE do not refer me to contact my local office because I already contacted them twice in the last 2 weeks and they literally do not know anything about why I have not received any letter or monies.

Democrat commissioner increased the attorney’s fees before leaving office. They are taking away more money from people needing social security. If dems are the party for people needing social security than why would they take away more money from people that need it.

I definitely will be letting them know how much I appreciate the incredible work they are doing, uncovering fraud and waste and ensuring that benefits continue for those who qualify to receive them. We are fortunate to have DOGE team working on this before the system runs out of money.
thanks for the emails.
