In the first place, the Social Security Administration<\/strong> has announced that the Agency<\/strong> slashes “Cooperative Agreements”. As a matter of fact, this effort is made in order to support President’s Executive Order.<\/p>\n

Therefore, it implies the ending of the RDRC,<\/strong> which is the Retirement and Disability Research Consortium, cooperative agreements<\/strong>. By now, many of you must be wondering why this is done.<\/p>\n

What is the main goal of this Social Security measure?<\/h2>\n

Actually, the main reason why the Social Security Administration<\/strong> is carrying out this measure is that it is a way of “ending radical and wasteful Government DEI Programs and Preferencing”.<\/p>\n

Bear in mind that eliminating their RDRC Cooperative Agreements<\/strong> is a way to follow President Donald Trump’s goal. Keep in mind that one of his priorities is to stop wasteful and fraudulent contracts as well as initiatives, stated Social Security’s<\/strong> Acting Commissioner Lee Dudek.<\/p>\n

The Acting Commissioner also claimed that they would carry on getting rid of abuse and waste so as to get back America’s confidence and trust<\/strong> in one of the most important agencies in the United States<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

How much money will this measure save Social Security?<\/h2>\n

According to SSA<\/strong>, Americans would save 15 million dollars after this change. Hence, terminating RDRC Cooperative Agreements means it brings cost savings for all hardworking Americans in fiscal year 2025.<\/p>\n

But why did Social Security<\/strong> previously enter into RDRC Cooperative Agreements with research centers? Apparently, it included a focus on research addressing DEI in Social Security, retirement, and disability policy.<\/p>\n

Another important change that the Administration<\/strong> has announced is the organizational realignment<\/strong> of the functions provided by its OARO.<\/strong> OARO stands for Office of Analytics, Review, and Oversight. Once again, the main purpose of this change is to eliminate fraud, waste, and abuse, just like President Donald Trump stated.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
