John,
More details are coming out about Trump’s plot to defund Social Security―and the trap he’s laying for the next President is clear.
As we’ve said, completely eliminating FICA contributions―which he calls the “payroll tax”―is unconstitutional. So Trump’s workaround is to simply order the IRS not to collect the money working Americans pay in to Social Security and Medicare with every check. That means that when Trump’s policy ends, at the end of this year, working Americans and corporations will owe 6 months worth of contributions.
That’s a mess that the next President will have to clean up. And the pressure NOT to send millions of Americans a bill for missed payments will be massive. It's a trap, and our Social Security system will pay the price.
Trump HASN’T signed his Executive Order to defund Social Security and Medicare yet. We’ve heard that he’s gotten pushback from Republicans in the Senate―we need to keep up the pressure! Chip in $7 to our emergency fund today!

Together, we're going to save Social Security from Donald Trump.
Thanks,
