WASHINGTON (AP) — Dozens of Social Security Administration offices across the country are slated to close this year due to actions taken by Elon Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency as part of the Trump administration’s unprecedented effort to shrink the size of government.

Of the 47 Social Security Administration offices listed for closure, only some had anticipated dates for when those lease cancellations would take effect. Here’s a state-by-state breakdown of the 26 offices listed as expected to close this year, along with the termination date for each lease, according to the General Services data:


Alabama

6. Four in North Carolina. They appear to mostly be in smaller cities, if I'm remembering right.

That means that people will have to travel to larger cities, which makes traffic conditions worse and crowds those offices even more. With less people to work the increased load, it's going to be a nightmare to get anything done.

Some nice country like Canada needs to take us over, not the other way around. I always liked King Charles, and I can try to speak Canadian English. How about it, guys?

8. Put me down

for being part of Canada!

I live in Western NC. They list 4 offices slated to be closed here. One that worries me is an office west of me, Franklin. Anyone familiar with western NC knows how sparsely populated it is and filled with curvy mountainous roads. There are no interstate highways in the 45 minute drive even to Waynesville and we don't have a social security office here. To drive from Franklin to Asheville, the nearest office takes 1 1/4 hours! From the far western edge of NC to Asheville is a FOUR HOUR DRIVE!

You tell me how people on SS are going to drive that far!!!
Many don't have drivers licenses, cars, computers or decent phone services. And fElon is cutting offices that help these seniors navigate the system.

I just called Senator Tillis and Senator Budd's offices. No one was in Senator Tillis' office, but I got to talk to someone in Budd's office. He said that they weren't planning on closing those offices, just their HEARING ROOMS.

What do you think of that? Is that even true?

9. I live in WI where no SSA offices are closed & none are on the list to be closed.

I can live with that.
