Rep. Price, Save Social Security & Medicare
Protecting the health and well-being of seniors who have paid into the social security and medicare trust funds for decades will not harm the economy. We urge you to stop all proposed cuts to either program, including Chained CPIs and raising recipients' age requirements.
Why is this important?
Protecting the health and well-being of seniors who have paid into the social security and medicare trust funds for decades has not and will not harm the economy. There are changes that can be made -- allowing Medicare to negotiate with pharmaceutical companies, for example -- but cutting benefits is unacceptable. Chained CPIs and raising recipients' age requirements are ways of cutting benefits.
