Kevin McCarthy’s commission

Congress must refuse to cooperate with McCarthy's closed-door commission so we can uphold the integrity of Social Security and Medicare. [Democracy for America Advocacy Fund](#) {NAME}, We are facing a critical threat to the future of Social Security and Medicare, as House Speaker Kevin McCarthy plans to establish a secret commission aimed at cutting these vital programs. Social Security has been a cornerstone of our society providing economic security and stability for retirees, survivors, and disabled individuals for decades. It is a promise made to hardworking Americans who have contributed to the system throughout their working lives, ensuring that they have a safety net in their golden years. Kevin McCarthy's proposal to establish a commission to cut Social Security benefits is deeply troubling and raises serious concerns about the future of this critical program. The potential consequences of such cuts would be devastating for millions of Americans who depend on Social Security to make ends meet. To stop McCarthy's commission, it is crucial that Democrats and allies stand united and refuse to participate. McCarthy's scheme relies on finding at least one Democrat willing to collaborate with Republicans. By refusing to engage, we can thwart their efforts and protect Social Security and Medicare. [Tell Congress that as elected representatives entrusted with the well-being of the American people, they must reject Kevin McCarthy’s commission and focus on initiatives that protect and expand Social Security instead.]( [Add Your Name]( Social Security has played a crucial role in reducing poverty among the elderly, ensuring their dignity, and providing a stable income source. Any attempt to cut benefits would disproportionately affect those who are already vulnerable, exacerbating income inequality and jeopardizing the well-being of countless individuals and families. Rather than seeking to undermine and diminish Social Security, our elected officials should be focusing on strengthening and expanding it to meet the needs of an aging population. With the retirement of the baby boomer generation and the increasing economic challenges faced by many Americans, now is the time to bolster Social Security, not dismantle it. Social Security is a self-funded program that has contributed positively to the overall financial health of our country. Attempts to link it to the national deficit or portray it as unsustainable are misguided and ignore the reality of its financial solvency. [Fight this closed-door attempt to cut Social Security and Medicare benefits. Tell Congress to stand up for the rights and needs of the American people by safeguarding Social Security and rejecting any attempts to undermine its crucial role in our society.]( Let’s keep working to ensure that Social Security remains a dependable source of income for generations to come. - Amanda Amanda Ford, Director Democracy for America Advocacy Fund [Power This Campaign]( Democracy for America Advocacy Fund is a 501c4 organization.
