There’s another word for using the TRUST Act to cut Social Security and Medicare to “pay for” expanded unemployment benefits during a pandemic: Raiding Social Security.

John,

Mitch McConnell is planning on releasing his COVID-19 emergency package on Monday. And in it he’s including Mitt Romney’s TRUST Act, which would create a fast-track commission to cut Social Security and Medicare.

We successfully got Senate Republicans to remove Trump’s scheme to defund Social Security from this COVID package. But they’ve just replaced it with a DIFFERENT attack on Social Security.

Social Security Works is putting vulnerable Republican Senators on notice for supporting cuts to Social Security by running mobile billboard ads in their states―pressuring them to reject the TRUST Act.

Together, we can stop the TRUST Act and tell Washington politicians where the American people stand: Expand, never cut, Social Security!

--MICHAEL'S EMAIL--

John,

For now, Trump’s proposal to defund Social Security is OUT of the emergency package the Senate is prepared to release on Monday. But in its place, Mitt Romney and Mitch McConnell are including the TRUST Act, a proposal to fast-track cuts to Social Security and Medicare.

All of our tactics to defeat Trump’s scheme worked―and now we have to do it all again over the weekend to stop the TRUST Act. Chip in $5 today!  

Social Security Works and our allies at the Tax March put vulnerable Senators on notice by parking billboard trucks outside their district offices, and driving thousands of calls into their offices:

We have until Monday to unleash the same furious response to the TRUST Act. Mitch McConnell and Mitt Romney decided that defunding Social Security was too transparent―so they’re creating a sneaky fast-tracked process that would allow them to cut Social Security behind closed doors!

There’s another word for using the TRUST Act to cut Social Security and Medicare to “pay for” expanded unemployment benefits during a pandemic: Raiding Social Security.
