Gwen Graham on Social Security

 

 


I refuse to support any budget with plans like privatization

Our seniors have worked hard and paid into Medicare and Social Security their entire lives--they deserve to have their benefits protected. We can't let partisan squabbles get in the way of keeping this promise our parents and grandparents have earned, and I refuse to support any budget that would jeopardize these vital programs through plans like privatization. We must protect and preserve Medicare and Social Security--both for seniors today, and for the next generation.

It isn't just our seniors who expect America to keep the promises we've made through Medicare and Social Security; seniors' families depend on Medicare and Social Security to keep their parents and loved ones healthy and secure, as well.
