Mike Lawler, House Republicans, and the Trump administration are destroying Social Security – and boasting about it.
First, Lawler fully submitted to Elon Musk’s plan to gut the agency, which cut phone lines, fired staff, and laid off workers through his cruel DOGE effort.
Second, the administration’s Howard Lutnick openly joked that people wouldn’t complain if seniors missed payment and offices closed – and to be clear, Mike Lawler HAS closed an office in the Hudson Valley.
Third, Lawler voted for the Big, Ugly Law, which Scott Bessent admitted was a “backdoor for privatizing Social Security.”
And if that wasn’t enough, in another example of the Republican obsession to dismantle Social Security, the Administration is rolling out a proposal to cut disability benefits to recipients.
DCCC Spokesperson Riya Vashi:
“Mike Lawler is silent as D.C. Republicans make clear that his bill would privatize the earned benefit that serves as a lifeline for millions of seniors. His betrayal to New York seniors and workers will cost him at the ballot box next year.”
