Social Security Commissioner Michael J. Astrue was in Atlanta this month with promising news for Georgians waiting to resolve disability claims with his agency.
The average time to settle a disability claim in the downtown Atlanta office has been reduced drastically, he said. On average, such claims are now handled in just 500 days. ...
Astrue lobbied for funds to hire more hearing officers and authorized a third field office for metro Atlanta.
I note with interest that Commissioner Astrue now wants it known that he has lobbied for more funds for his agency. He also mentioned this in the broadcast e-mail he sent out yesterday.
Amazing what happens under demcratic leadership.
