Trump has already closed offices, cut staff, and made it harder for seniors to get help over the phone.
Now, The Washington Post just reported that Trump and his team are pushing a plan to make it harder for older Americans to qualify for disability benefits, which could result in hundreds of thousands of people losing benefits.
Trump’s goal is simple: break Social Security, run it dry, and sell it for scrap.
Not on my watch. Just a few days before this news broke, I reintroduced the Billionaires Income Tax Act to make the ultrawealthy pay their fair share in taxes.
That’s money we can use to keep our promise to seniors and protect Social Security for the next generation.
Because here's the deal: Working Pennsylvanians are facing high and rising prices while the ultrawealthy and megacorporations game the system to pay next to nothing in taxes. This bill is about basic fairness – if you have billions, you shouldn’t pay less in taxes than your secretary.
