2020s senatorial press release: on Social Security


Mike Braun: Balanced budget plan doesn't touch Social Security/Medicare

My plan doesn't touch Medicare or Social Security. We'll stop out-of-control spending by putting "mandatory" spending that has nothing to do with entitlements back on the chopping block.

The budget would extend the life of the Social Security and Medicare/Medicaid trust funds, ensuring that the millions of seniors who rely on this program for their health care can continue to count on it. The Braun Budget also prioritizes eliminating billions in improper payments.
