Trump Is Raging - This is Good

22. Thank you for this vitally important information!

Some of our lives literally depend on SS and Medicare and/or other government programs.

Will I continue to receive my Social Security and SSI checks?

Recipients will continue to receive their Social Security and SSI checks. The Social Security Administration (SSA) will provide limited services like issuing Social Security cards and holding appointments for benefit applications. However, SSA will stop services like benefit verifications and processing overpayments. Customer service wait times will dramatically increase.

Will Medicare and Medicaid benefits be affected?

Current Medicare, Medicaid, and disability insurance beneficiaries will continue to receive their benefits assuming a shutdown lasts less than three months.

It's an outrage that Republicans think it's just fine to jerk us all around like this whenever they feel like it. Fuck them all, especially their dear leaders.
