Around Brooklyn: Rose wants more social security offices
Rose wants more social security offices
U.S. Rep. Max Rose (D-Southern Brooklyn-Staten Island) is calling on the Social Security Administration to open more offices in Southern Brooklyn and in Staten Island. “Brooklyn and Staten Island are the only two boroughs in New York City without a Hearing Office, forcing those who are sick or injured to travel long distances to the offices in Queens, the Bronx or Manhattan to have their case heard. We’ve made real progress in reducing the Social Security backlog, but it’s still outrageous that after waiting months for a hearing, my constituents also have to drive hours out of their way just to have their cases heard,” Rose said.
