U.S. Sen. Raphael Warnock, D-Georgia, has laid out what he calls the disastrous consequences of the announced closure of five Social Security Administration offices around Georgia

The offices to be closed are in Brunswick, Columbus, Gainesville, Thomasville and Vidalia.

“For millions of Georgians, Social Security provides a baseline of support and stability. It ensures our seniors, who’ve spent decades paying into the program, can afford rent, groceries and medication. Permanently closing five Georgia Social Security offices will make it harder for Georgia seniors, especially in rural areas, to enroll in the program, solve payment issues, report fraud and more,” said Warnock.
