John,

Today, President Biden is hosting a bipartisan meeting between leaders in the House and Senate about ending the hostage crisis that’s threatening our nation with default―and the stakes couldn’t be higher.

Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen already warned:

Secretary Yellen has been undertaking the extraordinary measures that have held off default since January but, in less than a month, those measures will be exhausted.

Remember how we got here: MAGA Republicans are holding the United States’ ability to pay its debts hostage. If they get their way, they will close Social Security offices, shut down Meals on Wheels programs that seniors rely on, and slash services for veterans. That’s what a ‘win’ looks like to Kevin McCarthy and Mitch McConnell.

Social Security Works is making sure that the public knows the stakes of this fight―putting up billboards from coast to coast, organizing seniors in the streets, and fighting in Washington DC for a discharge petition that will allow the passage of a bill to prevent default without harming seniors. Can you chip in $7 to our campaign?
