The GOP is coming for our Social Security. Presidential candidates Tim Scott, Ron DeSantis, Chris Christie and Nikki Haley have all publicly said they want to make today’s 30 and 40-year-olds retire later than their parents. And Donald Trump proposed cuts to Social Security every year he was President. These politicians want today’s young people to pay into Social Security their whole lives, and then accept less than our parents in retirement. We will not accept less than our parents got, and grandparents will not take a secure retirement away from our grandkids. We will NOT raise the retirement age! |

Folks,
Republicans want to make us work until we die.
Multiple Republican presidential candidates and now the Republican Study Committee, the LARGEST House Republican group (including both Republican representatives from Washington State), are pushing to raise the retirement age – denying us and our kids the right to a dignified retirement.
Our Social Security system lifts millions of seniors out of poverty – preventing housing and food insecurity for many of our most vulnerable Americans.
But today’s greedy politicians want to weaken it and tear it down so that their wealthy Wall Street donors don’t have to pay another dime.
While they *are* clever enough not to try and cut benefits for current retirees, these cynical politicians think seniors won’t care if they screw over the coming generations as long as they promise not to touch their benefits. It’s time to show them how wrong they are.
When we say “Hands Off Our Social Security,” we don’t mean just for current beneficiaries. We mean every American who pays in to the system over a lifetime of hard work deserves their benefits, and those benefits cannot be cut. Social Security is a sacred promise, and no damn politician can break it.
Sign now: Hands off our Social Security!
In solidarity,
Jason |
