💨 Abstract

In a congressional hearing, new Social Security Administration (SSA) Commissioner Frank Bisignano faced questions about the agency's future and its ability to deliver benefits and ensure privacy. After significant job cuts and turmoil, Bisignano proposed a technology-led approach to streamline operations and improve employee satisfaction. The SSA has faced scrutiny and lawsuits due to controversial proposals from the Department of Government Efficiency, led by Elon Musk, including access to personal data and cost-cutting measures.
