John,

Ted Cruz slanders Social Security as a “ponzi scheme”. He says we should raise the retirement age. And he wants to hand our earned benefits over to Wall Street.

The American people, regardless of party, overwhelmingly disagree. Voters want to strengthen Social Security, not cut it!

So it’s no surprise that Ted Cruz’s favorability ratings are underwater — and that his Democratic opponent, Colin Allred, is gaining on him in recent polls. In fact, a brand new poll found that Allred and Cruz are in a statistical tie.

Colin Allred wants to protect and strengthen, never cut, Social Security and Medicare.

With our help, Allred can defeat Ted Cruz and head to the U.S. Senate to fight for our earned benefits. Split a donation of $10 between Colin Allred’s campaign and Social Security Works today!

Colin Allred was raised by a single mom and knows what it’s like to live paycheck to paycheck. He says that “When it came time for my mom to retire, she had earned every bit of her retirement benefits, and to this day, she relies on Medicare and lives on the fixed income of a retired Texas teacher. No one has to tell me how important these benefits are to our seniors.”

This is one of a handful of races likely to determine control of the U.S. Senate, and with it, the future of Social Security.

Ted Cruz wants to cut our earned benefits. Instead, let’s cut off his political career and replace him with a Social Security champion.
