Social Security Administration acting commissioner steps down

Social Security Administration Acting Commissioner Michelle King has stepped down from her role at the agency, a Trump administration official confirmed to CBS News.

King was replaced by Leland Dudek, who oversaw the SSA fraud investigation office, and then she resigned, according to this official. 

White House spokesperson Harrison Fields on Monday wrote on social media about the news, "President Trump has nominated the highly qualified and talented Frank Bisignano to lead the Social Security Administration, and we expect him to be swiftly confirmed in the coming weeks. In the meantime, the agency will be led by a career Social Security anti-fraud expert as the acting commissioner."
