Local efforts to prevent the Social Security Administration from closing its Galveston field office may be starting to get somewhere. The Daily News of Galveston County is reporting that while the office may close, a satellite office may open there in its place. Local Congressman Ron Paul, who is still running for President, is refusing to get involved, however.
"Tom Lizardo, spokesman for U.S. Rep. Ron Paul, said the Social Security office asked Paul in June to sign a letter supporting the move to League City but he refused to sign it because the city of Galveston opposed it. As a policy, Paul does not help one city in his district over another unless the leaders agree on a decision, Lizardo said.

Plus Dr. Paul would be a better choice for President than what we have to choose from now.
