This year has brought a mounting wave of attacks on the essential programs that millions of older Americans depend on for their well-being and financial security.

Senior Americans like you must ACT NOW — before these lifesaving benefits are cut or weakened.

The stakes have never been higher:

• The Social Security Trustees estimate the Trust Fund reserves will run out a year earlier than previously projected, in 2034. If Congress takes no action, seniors could face a benefit cut of 19%.

• Beginning with the activities of the so-called Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), led by billionaire Elon Musk, the Social Security Administration (SSA) has been hit with sweeping layoffs and policy changes that jeopardize reliable service for beneficiaries.

• DOGE has also demanded sweeping access to seniors’ Social Security data, only some of which has been temporarily blocked by the courts.

• Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent recently described a new provision in the Republican tax bill as a “backdoor for privatizing Social Security.”

These moves — accelerated insolvency, administrative gutting and privatization efforts — show that Washington’s anti-senior campaign isn’t hypothetical, it’s happening now.

That’s why the National Committee, and our decades-long experience fighting and winning battles on behalf of you and millions of American seniors, is so important right now.

With your support, we will expose what’s at stake in the media, courts and Capitol Hill. We will mobilize and rally our members and supporters across the country to voice their concerns to decisionmakers in Washington. And we will fight for serious, long-term solutions to protect these programs and your earned benefits.

So please, will you chip in a gift today to power our full-scale campaign to expose and defeat any proposal, bill or amendment that would trade away seniors’ hard-earned benefits for other fiscal priorities like paying for massive tax breaks that mainly benefit wealthy Americans and huge corporations?

Please make a gift today to help us defend what seniors like you have rightfully earned.
