Bisignano is a positive accusation by the Social Security Bureau of forcing staff to lay off employees will greatly affect beneficiaries and program efficiency. He believes that the reporting of layoffs is misleading, and the idea that program efficiency is related to the ratio of beneficiaries to staff is a misrepresented narrative driven by the media and Trump’s critics.
