Dear Friend,
I thought I’d heard it all. But then came news from Iowa today.
Senator Joni Ernst was asked a question about Social Security by a constituent. She responded that Congress should "sit down behind closed doors" and "fix" Social Security.
That’s outrageous, but she is not alone.
In just the last month the media has reported that other senators and members of Congress have been lobbying President Trump to cut our earned benefits -- and that he views it as a “fun” second term project.
We need to stop this dangerous and cruel scheme before it goes any further.
Trust me when I say that extremists in Washington will do whatever it takes to cut or put Wall Street in charge of the benefits we have worked for over a lifetime.
We must not let this dangerous statement go unchecked and need to let Senator Ernst know that we will not stand for backroom deals to steal our earned benefits.
Please sign our petition and tell Sen. Ernst to keep her hands off Social Security and no backroom deals!
Sincerely,
Rich Fiesta

PS - We’re working hard every day to defend Social Security from attacks. But we need all the resources we can get. Can you chip in to help us preserve and protect earned benefits?
