Dear John,
Time is running out to protect your earned benefits! We need to deliver as many signed Petitions to Congress as possible before the November 5th election.
John, please help us make the biggest possible impact on the contentious debate about the future of your earned Social Security and Medicare benefits by signing our urgent PETITION TO CONGRESS today.
As you know, the rhetoric targeting your earned benefits continues to heat up in Washington and on the campaign trail. Incredibly, at a time when millions of older Americans are relying on Social Security and Medicare for a dignified retirement, some lawmakers and candidates are openly advocating for cutting and privatizing these essential programs.
The most immediate threat to your benefits that we’re fighting is ongoing efforts by GOP hardliners to target Social Security and Medicare with deep cuts to pay for other fiscal priorities — including an extension of the Trump-GOP tax cuts for the wealthy and huge corporations which would cost a whopping $4.6 trillion over the next 10 years.
But the full picture of the anti-Social Security and anti-Medicare agenda we’re fighting includes:
Cutting the Social Security Cost-of-Living Adjustment (COLA)
Ending traditional Medicare
Privatizing Social Security
Increasing the eligibility age for both Medicare and Social Security
That’s why I need YOU — and every other retiree on the National Committee’s roster — to participate in our 50-state PETITION TO CONGRESS campaign today! The more signatures we collect, the bigger our impact on Capitol Hill — and in the media, too.
So please act now!Add your name to our PETITION TO CONGRESS demanding members of Congress and candidates uphold our government’s obligation to millions of retirees and workers today!
