Yet extending the Trump-GOP tax cuts comes with a whopping $4.6 trillion price tag — which is not exactly budget friendly! So how will GOP lawmakers offset this huge cost?

They want to put a large bull’s eye on Social Security and Medicare because they believe that’s where there are trillions of dollars — your money.

As if to foreshadow that changes are indeed coming to Social Security, Senator Mike Lee (UT) posted the following on X: “1. Of all the deceptive sales techniques the U.S. government has used on the American people, one of them—the Social Security Act—gets far too little attention. Buckle up because this is a wild ride.”

There can be no doubt, opponents of Social Security and Medicare believe the next Trump administration and new Congress will offer a ripe environment to push forward their radical “reforms” for seniors’ programs. |
|
At a time when so many older Americans are struggling to afford the high cost of housing, utilities, gas and groceries, the last thing they can afford is to have their benefits reduced. And that’s why we must make it clear to our elected officials, many of whom are millionaires, that most seniors rely on their benefits just to make ends meet each month. |

Your action today could make a huge difference to you, your family and millions of others.
