Washington, DC—(ENEWSPF)—June 27, 2014. Last Friday, Representatives Raúl Grijalva (D-AZ) and Jan Schakowsky (D-IL) led 121 of their Congressional colleagues in sending a letter to Social Security Administration (SSA) Acting Administrator Carolyn W. Colvin, urging her to reconsider impending cutbacks that will severely restrict access to SSA services. Those cutbacks – ending in-person requests for copies of Social Security Numbers (known as Numi-lites) and/or verification statements from SSA offices – take effect in August and October of this year respectfully. In 2013 alone, 11 million people relied on field offices for immediate access to this information.
