  • Many Social Security field offices are closing amid federal cost-cutting efforts, disproportionately affecting poorer regions like McDowell County, where 30% receive Social Security.
  • Residents express concerns that changes to Social Security will disproportionately affect vulnerable populations and leave them feeling uninformed about recent government actions.
