Hello John,
I hope you saw Max’s email from earlier in the week! This election, we need workers and retirees to make their views and opinions heard loud and clear in Washington, DC and on the campaign trail. Candidates and incumbents alike need to know that voters expect our elected officials to protect and strengthen their earned benefits. That’s why I urge you to signing our Urgent Petition to Congress TODAY! If you have already signed it: Thank you.
Please also consider making a donation in whatever amount you can afford to support our fight on Capitol Hill to pass legislation that will strengthen Social Security for millions of older Americans.

Dear John,
Some of the incumbents running for election this November have indicated a readiness and willingness to scale back, privatize and even end the Social Security benefits you’ve paid into and earned in order to fund other fiscal priorities.
As a 16-year veteran of Capitol Hill and former staff director of the Senate Special Committee on Aging, I have seen how individuals can make a difference in Washington when they stand shoulder-to-shoulder with millions who share their concerns. So please GO ON THE RECORD NOW with your elected officials in Washington about how important Social Security is to you and your family!
Remember, your earned benefits are at stake! While you participate in our grassroots petition campaigns like this, we are meeting with members of Congress, testifying in person and via video at legislative hearings and conducting research on the complicated laws and regulations that affect your earned benefits.
In the final analysis, voters who make their wishes unmistakably clear to Congress in overwhelming numbers have the best chance to defeat special interest lobbies. That’s the way our system works. Please sign our urgent petition today!
Sincerely,
|
