Today is Social Security’s 90th Anniversary! More than 54 million seniors have paid (and about 184 million workers are currently paying) their hard-earned money into Social Security.

These are your earned benefits. They do not belong to the politicians in Washington who want to use them like a piggy bank to pay for other fiscal priorities, including massive unpaid-for tax breaks that mainly benefit the wealthy and huge corporations.

That’s why we must continue to stand strong for America’s most popular and effective program — and defend Social Security from devastating benefit cuts and dangerous privatization schemes on the horizon! Please make a Social Security Anniversary Gift today to help the National Committee protect this vital lifeline for millions of Americans and their families.

As you may know, the National Committee has been fighting to protect the benefits of workers and retirees for 42 years. Every day we are communicating with Senators, Representatives and the Trump Administration and acting in your best interests through advocacy, education and grassroots efforts.

Celebrate the 90th anniversary of Social Security by watching our new documentary film, “Social Security: 90 Years Strong.” You’ll see how Social Security got started back in 1935, its history through the years and why it’s so important that we preserve the program today.

And please help the National Committee bolster our urgent campaign to fend off reckless attacks on your earned benefits, restore adequate customer service at the Social Security Administration, and stop efforts to push this program down the dangerous path to privatization by making an Anniversary Gift today.

We are grateful for any generous support you can give!
