Trump’s Social Security Sabotage: A Plan to Cripple Seniors
To enhance security, online identity verification will now be mandatory for phone-based Social Security benefit applications. Individuals lacking internet access must visit a field office for in-person verification.

This may pose a challenge for elderly or disabled applicants who previously relied on the existing phone system.
