Randy Feenstra on Social Security

 

 


Balance the budget to sustain Social Security

Feenstra said he would not vote to change the age limit to qualify for Social Security benefits to save the system or raise taxes, opting instead to balance the budget to sustain the program. "It's an unfunded mandate right now. It's unfunded because we have out-of-control debt right now. If you can start controlling your debt and getting to a point where you have a balanced budget, everything then falls in place … I am not a person who raises taxes."
