2. The new acting commissioner gloated about firing 14 employees as an "accomplishment" in his commissioner broadcast to the agency
3. The entire Office of Transformation, and its 60+ employees were dissolved. Their whole purpose was to promote agency-wide efficiencies and faster processing times through oversight over SSA systems and use of information technology.
4. The entire Office of Civil Rights and Equal Opportunity and its 190 employees were dissolved, including the Commissioner and Deputy Commissioner of Civil Rights. OCREO conducts statutorily mandated requirements for employees and members of the public including the reasonable accommodation request process, the public facing discrimination complaint process, and the EEOC employment discrimination complaint process. The National RA Coordinator at OCREO whose position was court ordered was also terminated.
7. Executive staff responsible for overseeing regional field office operations were terminated, I know that one region had all but 3 out 72 staff members terminated and it is very likely that the other ten regions had similar terminations. These regional executive offices oversee hundreds of field offices.
8. The Acting Commissioner sent out a memo to SSA staff indicating significant restructuring of the agency due a "bloated workforce and organization structure," even though staffing at SSA has been the lowest it's been in 50 years. The reorganization includes taking the 10 regions that SSA's serves and consolidating into 4 regions; and combining multiple independent SSA components togetherin an effort to "downsize" or "streamline." This could potentially lead to massive closures in field offices, a reduction of services, and a significant number of terminations of agency employees.
