John,

Republicans are gonna use the debt ceiling to take your Social Security. They've always wanted to rip away your Social Security.

Former Republican House Speaker, Paul Ryan, had a plan to dismantle Social Security. Had he succeeded, it would've become a stock gamble, with Congress corporations playing with inside information.

Now, we are confronted with this reckless and vicious ploy by Speaker McC...Taylor Greene to threaten the world economy and plunge us into recession by defaulting on our debt.

The Washington Post wrote "U.S. debt defaults could hit Social Security payments first", while CNBC laid out the dangerous financial repercussions clearly:

But to Republicans stuffing their pockets with lobbyist cash, whether you can pay the rent, or eat dinner, is a political game. It's who the are.

Social Security Works, in the most effective campaign I've witnessed, took apart GOP efforts to cut Social Security by using the debt ceiling a decade ago. They've been on the front lines a long time. They know how to win.

Can you join us in RUSHING Social Security Works the resources necessary to succeed while we still can, by giving $5, $10, $25 or whatever you can to protect Social Security and beat back Republican greed-monsters again?

Thank you for standing up for the vulnerable, and standing up to the ghouls.

Cliff

About BlueAmp Action:

We cannot sugarcoat the current situation. Right-wing authoritarianism, defeated by a worldwide coalition during WWII, was only in hibernation. Over the past decade it has infected democratic societies--including ours. It is as simple as it is terrifying: What we do now will define the future of our country and world. 

We at Blue Amp Action are dedicated to liberal, open societies, where reason and science are applied to solve our problems; where civil rights--including voting rights!--are protected for all. We fight for these values every day. Speaking up on our platforms, raising the voices and the political prospects of liberal pols and pundits. 

And savvy grassroots activists like you know, just like we do, that we can’t stop watching the people we help elect: after the elections, we have to keep organizing support for the policies we like and pushing back against the ones we don’t.

When the public tunes out between elections and the only people our elected officials hear from are the paid lobbyists of wealthy corporations, our government stops being accountable to the needs of ordinary families.

Democracy never sleeps, and neither can we.

So we ask that you support our work, so we can continue to engage in this fight every moment of every day. So our kids grow up in democracy, not dystopia.

Thank you for your support for all we do! Please follow Cliff Schecter on Twitter @cliffschecter, or subscribe to The Takedown with Cliff Schecter on YouTube, to keep up to date with this battle for the heart and soul of our country.
