To: Congressman Scott Peters, Representative 52nd Congressional District and Rep. Scott Peters (CA-52)
Fight Cuts to Social Security and Medicare
Tell Congressman Peters that we will not support him in the next election if he supports cuts to Social Security and Medicare.
Why is this important?
Congressman Scott Peters campaigned on fighting cuts to Social Security and Medicare. Now that he has been elected, he is refusing to sign the Grayson-Takano letter to the White House opposing cuts to Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid. He has consistently refused to take a stand on these issues that are so important to his constituents. In view of the greatest inequity in wealth and income since before the great depression, we do not want to see continued tax breaks to the 1% and corporations on the backs of seniors and the shrinking middle class.
Congressman Peters must also stop referring to Social Security and Medicare as “entitlements.” They are “earned benefits” paid into throughout our working years.
When we voted for Scott Peters, rather than Bilbray, we expected him to support the democratic principles he campaigned on. Congressman Peters does not deserve to be re-elected if he supports cuts to Social Security and Medicare
