It's Benzinga bringing Wall Street to Main Street.
00:02
Security administration is facing mounting criticism over service disruptions according
00:06
to the Wall Street Journal. The agency has faced staff cuts, limited phone assistance,
00:11
and office closures amid a surge in retiree claims. Agency officials cautioned in a memo
00:17
that tens of thousands of additional people may inundate field offices each week due to new
00:22
restrictions. Call wait times now exceed two hours and only 47% of callers reach a representative,
00:28
down from 60% in 2024. Doge plans to slash SSA staffing by 12% this year.
