AFGE Council 220 President Jessica LaPointe traveled from Wisconsin last week and delivered a stark message on Capitol Hill about the future of the Social Security Administration.

“The SSA workforce is collapsing, morale is at an all-time low, and management is silencing the union,” LaPointe said during a June 10 press conference outside the U.S. Capitol that was coordinated by Democrats on the U.S. House Ways and Means Committee.

AFGE Council 220 is the exclusive representative of about 25,000 bargaining unit employees at SSA who work in field offices, teleservice centers, workload support unis, and other components in every state and U.S. territory.

The press conference occurred following Social Security Commissioner Frank Bisignano’s testimony before the U.S. House Ways and Means Subcommittees on Social Security and Work & Welfare.
