John, Republicans have repeatedly threatened the future of vital programs like Social Security. Here's everything you need to know:

FIRST, fringe Republicans in Congress, including Senator Rick Scott, introduced a number of plans that would either make drastic cuts to or raise the eligibility age for Social Security. 

THEN, President Biden directly called out the GOP's egregious efforts to cut Social Security and was met with vigorous denials by Republicans – who agreed that Social Security was off-limits. 

NOW, just a handful of weeks after the GOP's outburst, Republicans are refusing to raise the debt limit unless President Biden agrees to their new budget proposal – which would force people across the country on Social Security to wait longer to receive the benefits they've earned.

John, despite what they're trying to get us to believe, Republicans are continuing their crusade against programs like Social Security – they're just getting sneakier about how they do it. But I see through their attempts, and I refuse to let them get away with it.

And mark my words, I will do whatever it takes to protect Social Security – and I need your help to get to the Senate and take an even stronger stand.

John, I'm running for the Senate so I can help build a progressive future that works for all, but I can only win with your help. Right now, I'm facing a steep fundraising deficit, and I'm relying on small-dollar grassroots donors like you to help make up the difference. So please:

Will you rush any amount you can spare to my campaign right now so I can bring my decades of experience to the Senate and fight for progressive issues like Social Security and more?

Thanks for being on my team.
