John – I am so thrilled to share with you that I have earned the support of the Alliance for Retired Americans (ARA), a non-partisan association of retired trade union members associated with the AFL-CIO.
This endorsement means so much to me because it’s a recognition of my unwavering support for both protecting our social safety net AND my strong commitment to unions.
Republicans are openly flaunting their plans to dramatically cut Social Security and Medicare, calling these programs “entitlements.”
Well frankly, I agree, they ARE entitlements.
I firmly believe that EVERY American has the right and is entitled to retire in dignity. Our seniors have earned these benefits over a lifetime of hard work, and they deserve to live out their final years with income security and top-quality, affordable healthcare.
Every time Republicans talk about cutting Social Security, I think about my beautiful grandmother, who just turned 105 this year!
Since its passage in 1935, Social Security has lifted tens of millions of senior Americans out of poverty. It is unconscionable that ANY elected representative would threaten to strip away the earned benefits of a whole generation.
David Roth is a single, gay dad running to flip a U.S. Senate seat in Idaho. His opponent is an extremist “pro-life” Republican who’s been in politics for 37 years. David stepped up to serve the state that has been his home most of his life, where he is now raising his two young sons, because every state is worth fighting for. There has never been an openly gay man elected to the U.S. Senate. Help us make history this year. Pitch in now to flip this seat and send David to D.C.
