No cuts to Social Security, Medicare or Medicaid benefits. Period.
Why is this important?
We are hearing reports that Congress is rushing towards a deal that will prevent the U.S. Government from defaulting on the debt ceiling and keep the government funded through the 2016 elections.
But, if The New York Times is correct, there could be cuts to Medicare and Social Security benefits in the deal.
We don't know all of the details yet, but people who rely on Social Security are already stretched thin, and just found out that they won't receive an annual increase this year.
We need to make our voices heard to keep cuts out of any potential deal: No cuts to Social Security, Medicare or Medicaid benefits!
