Senator Liz Krueger’s
Virtual Older Adult Roundtable Series
on the Impact of Federal Funding Cuts on Older Adults
Session III - Social Security, SSI, and SSD
Thursday, November 6th 2 pm – 3:30 pm
Over 70 million people receive Social Security. Most of us have paid into Social Security all of our lives. We rely on Social Security for stability in retirement, in case of disability, or if we lose a working spouse. Clearly, these funds are vital, particularly since half of older adults rely on Social Security for the majority of our income.
Learn about the impact of the Federal budget cuts to Social Security, SSI, and SSD, what can be done to fight the cuts, and what needs to be done to keep the Social Security system solvent for the future.
Presenters:
Tracey Thomas Gronniger
Managing Director, Economic Security and Housing, Justice in Aging
Emilia Sicilia
Managing Attorney, Disability Advocacy Program (DAP), Empire Justice
Michelle Spadafore
Senior Supervising Attorney, NYLAG
