John,
Democrats in the Senate are working hard to expand Medicare this summer, by covering dental, hearing, and vision care, and lowering the eligibility age to 60.
No wonder Mitch McConnell is trying to blow up the deal and stall President Biden’s agenda.
Chip in $5 to Expand Medicare!
Social Security Works is doing critical advocacy work to make sure that members of Congress hear from older Americans who need this coverage. Your contributions make our work possible.
Thanks,

John,
We’ve never been closer to expanding Medicare―and together, we can get it over the finish line!
Senator Bernie Sanders and Majority Leader Chuck Schumer are working in tandem to bring a bill to the floor that can pass with only 50 votes in the Senate―and they are both insistent that it expand Medicare!

There is a gaping hole in Medicare that leaves out dental, vision, and hearing coverage.
This is a serious problem.
I’m working with @SenSanders to push to include dental, vision, and hearing Medicare coverage in the American Jobs and Families Plans.

Adding these benefits to Medicare would be a game-changer for older Americans. Chip in $7 to get it done!
Health care costs eat up ⅓ of the average Social Security check, and it’s no surprise: Seniors have eyes, ears, and teeth, and if Medicare doesn’t cover it, older Americans have to pay elsewhere, either with private insurers or out of pocket. If we expand Medicare to cover these necessary services, Americans will be better able to retire with dignity!
Seniors have dentures and hearing aids―it’s time for Medicare to recognize that!
Donate today to EXPAND Medicare to cover hearing, dental, and vision coverage!
Thanks,
