John,
On Monday, Donald Trump announced that he was open to cutting Social Security and Medicare if voters return him to the White House.
The Republican Party has long backed cutting and privatizing Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid, but they try to hide it behind misleading profit projections or closed-door commissions. Now, the mask is all the way off. Influential Republican talking head Ben Shapiro just doubled down on Trump’s claim, saying that “retirement itself is a stupid idea.”
Republicans are running against retirement itself. Every voter needs to know that. Rush a donation to Social Security Works to make sure EVERY VOTER knows what’s on the line.
We already knew:
-
Donald Trump backed cuts to Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid in every budget he released as President.
-
Three-fourths of Republicans in the House of Representatives endorsed raising the retirement age to 70.
-
Donald Trump tried to unilaterally defund Social Security and Medicare during the pandemic.
-
Republican leaders are still trying to attach a closed-door commission to ongoing government funding talks, with the goal of teeing up Social Security cuts after the 2024 election.
The MAGA Republican Party has radicalized and declared war on seniors. We’re making sure every senior knows it before they vote in November. Rush a donation today!
Thank you,
Alex Lawson Social Security Works
