Hi John, once again GOP presidential candidate Donald Trump is talking about cuts to Social Security and Medicare—something he and his party tried and failed to pass during his presidency.

Trump tried to walk back his comments after significant backlash, but we must take his threats seriously.

The GOP has a long track record of trying to snatch away these hard-earned benefits from seniors and his remarks signal that’s only going to continue.

Seniors can’t afford to ignore Trump’s comments because these life-saving programs are important for seniors who are already struggling to make ends meet. Which is why I need you to stand with me and not let the GOP destroy these programs.

We need to defend Social Security, Medicare, and other critical programs from the GOP. Sign my petition in the next 72 hours to prove we have a mandate of support for the seniors who need these initiatives→
  SIGN ON: STAND UP FOR SOCIAL SECURITY AND MEDICARE
When House Republicans proposed cuts to Social Security and Medicare during debt ceiling negotiations my Democratic colleagues stopped them, but we knew it wouldn’t be their last attempt.

These programs save lives. Seniors are struggling to make ends meet in the richest country on earth. Yet Republicans try to diminish their benefits every chance possible.

As elected officials, our job is to improve the lives of constituents, not make them harder.

Social Security and Medicare on the ballot and it’s up to us to defend them. Click here to become one of the 1,000 people I need to sign my petition and make it clear that we want to protect these lifesaving programs.

Be well,

Dr. Ami Bera
