Credit card companies can only due the person who signed their agreement. So if he does not sign it's your problem only. You only contact ss if you are collecting ss since it might impact your monthly check.

If you change your name you need to let social security administration know. Credit cards use your social security number and you are liable for the agreement you enter but since you are married and Texas is a community property state there may be a way to extend liability to your husband
