The Social Security Administration (SSA) strives to provide accurate and helpful information. One of the ways it does this is by tapping into resources that people use the most. Nowadays, that means social media. As Pantagraph reports, you can connect to Social Security via Facebook, YouTube, Twitter, and Instagram, as well as read blog posts on its website. The SSA uses social media to inform the public about programs, policies, current topics, and new online services. 

The Seniors Trust is committed to improving the financial well-being of America’s retirees through passage of The Social Security Expansion Act. It will give retirees an immediate benefits increase of about $200 a month, a fair annual cost-of-living adjustment (COLA), and increased minimum benefits.
