7. I attend a weekly vigil at the local Social Security office.

We have signs that point out the specific issues going on at Social Security.

When this story first appeared a few months ago, we made signs saying No Cuts to SSI. A lot of people don't know what SSI is. Adding No cuts for the Disabled, is a way to clarify.

Grab a few friends, and organize a vigil. You can pin the event on mobilize.us. Grass roots organizing has been made easy.

We also have signs that say We Support SSA Staffers. They have been baring the brunt of the destruction created by DOGE.

We have signs that point out that DOGE compromised out data, and DOGE stole our data. We look at the breaking news stories about the SS Administration, and create new signs.

I saw an idea for a sign on this page: CUT THE CRAP, RAISE THE CAP.

We are a small group, but people come up to us and ask questions. Our signs are there to bring attention and inform.

We are energized by all the positive feedback. Grass roots resistance organizing is our power.
