There are few things that Republican extremists love more than hatching schemes to slash Social Security.

And they claim that making the program less generous is the only way to ensure its survival.

Baloney.

I’m not buying it. Along with Senator Bernie Sanders, I’ve introduced a bill that would EXPAND Social Security benefits by $2,400 a year AND fully fund the program all the way to 2096. All by getting people making over $250,000 to pitch in a fair share.

Add your name to support expanding Social Security, and let’s fight side by side to get this done. [[link removed]]

I’ll keep working to stop Republicans from cutting Social Security, but we can’t just stick to the status quo. Even though Social Security is a lifeline for millions, seniors are still struggling with rising costs. So we can’t just protect benefits — we should expand them, too.

We can keep Social Security strong for generations to come by getting the wealthy to pay a fair share. Right now, because of the way Social Security taxes are capped, a billionaire CEO pays the same amount as someone who makes $160,000 a year. That makes zero sense. Under our bill, just 11 of the highest-paid CEOs in the country would have paid $3.4 billion more into the program in 2021. That’s more like it.

And by making sure Social Security is on sound footing, we can slam the brakes on one of Republicans’ favorite scams:

First, they run up the deficit with massive tax breaks for millionaires, billionaires, and giant corporations.

Then, they claim we’ve got to get serious about reducing the deficit. Not by undoing those tax breaks to their big donors, of course. But by slashing programs that serve working people. And they draw a big red bullseye on Social Security.

Not on our watch.

We’ve got to protect AND expand Social Security. If you agree, add your name as a grassroots cosponsor of the Social Security Expansion Act. [[link removed]]
