Friend: Recently, we got a hold of President Trump's 2020 budget proposal, and it's worse than we thought. This budget would cut billions - yes, billions - of dollars from Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid. Trump doubled down on these proposed cuts during a Fox News town hall, again threatening to cut these vital programs.

Donald Trump was born with a silver spoon in his mouth, and he may think it’s easy to rob billions of dollars in vital services from the elderly and vulnerable – but you know what’s not so easy? Trying to make a limited income last through medical expenses, heating costs and groceries. Or worrying about how you’ll put food on the table for your child and pay for their hospital bills.

These are experiences that Donald Trump has never had to face, but it’s reality for many Michiganders and Americans. To put it as plainly as possible: Gary will fight any and every attempt to take away Social Security and Medicare.

But in the face of these proposed cuts from President Trump – and similar moves from Mitch McConnell and Republican senators – Gary needs you to join him in protecting these crucial services. Will you add your name to our petition now to oppose GOP cuts to Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid?

Threatening to cut these programs is cruel and unacceptable. That’s why we’ve set a goal to secure 5,000 signatures to this petition. Can we count on you to stand shoulder to shoulder with millions of Americans who rely on these vital programs? Sign the petition to oppose GOP cuts to Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid.

Thank you,

Team Peters
