Retiree Organization Applauds President Biden’s Decision to Fire SSA Commissioner

Statement of Richard Fiesta, executive director of the Alliance for Retired Americans:

“Andrew Saul was a disaster for seniors and all Social Security beneficiaries.  From day one he was on a mission to gut the Social Security system from the inside. Thank you President Biden for taking decisive action.

“The millions of Americans of all ages who rely or will rely on earned Social Security benefits deserve a Social Security Commissioner who understands and supports the agency’s mission.

“With 10,000 Americans turning 65 each day, the hardworking employees of the SSA deserve a leader who will also fight for them and the people of this nation whom they serve.”
