Leader Schumer Statement Warning Americans Of The Threat Posed By Frank Bisignano To Lead The Social Security Administration

Washington, D.C. – Leader Schumer released the following statement warning Senate Republicans of the dangers of voting to confirm “Mr. Slash-and-Burn” Frank Bisignano to lead the Social Security Administration:

“The nomination of Mr. Slash-and-Burn Bisignano is DOGE by another name. He is the last person Americans should entrust with their Social Security benefits.

“Today, Republicans have a choice: vote against Bisignano and stop the attacks on Social Security, or vote yes and be complicit in the dismantling of Social Security. It should be a no brainer.

“Confirming Mr. Slash-and-Burn Bisignano means accelerating the closures, rollbacks, and risky practices that DOGE has already set in motion. And the anxiety Americans feel about their benefits will only get worse.

“Donald Trump and Republicans know they can’t admit they want to kill Social Security outright, so instead they’re choosing another method: strangulation. Office closures, delays, mass layoffs, trouble over the phone, trouble over email. Bisignano would bring even more strangulation.

“If Mr. Bisignano is confirmed, Senate Republicans will own all of the chaos he creates at the Social Security Administration.”
