Sorensen said he was fighting to protect Americans from the Trump-Musk plan to gut Social Security and helped introduce the Keeping Our Field Offices Open Act, which would impose a moratorium on Social Security field and hearing office closures until January 21, 2029.

This is a concrete legislative effort to stop Social Security service cuts/closures and shows active advancement of protective action, even though it does not establish a completed record against all privatization or Medicare-cut proposals.
