We deserve to retire with dignity, not work until we die. Plain and simple. Voters who want to see Social Security protected and expanded should support Angie Nixon in November’s election. @angieforfl.bsky.social

Our Social Security system is fully affordable. If we make billionaires pay in at the same rate as the rest of us, we can afford to protect and expand benefits for current and future generations.

Republican politicians voted to cut more than $1 trillion from healthcare programs, including Medicaid, Medicare, and the Affordable Care Act in order to offset their tax cuts for the ultra-rich. Now, the rich are getting richer and the rest of us are getting left behind.

Here are the stakes: Unless Congress acts before 2032, Social Security benefits will automatically be reduced by over 20%. That means candidates elected this November– like Kimberly Overman, running in FL-12– are likely to take key votes on Social Security’s future! @leadersmatter.bsky.social

The best way to protect our Social Security and health care from Republican attacks, and save our democracy from Trump’s authoritarianism, is for Democrats to take back control of Congress. Candidates like @joannamendoza.com will lead the fight to protect our earned benefits & health care!

Republican budget chair Jodey Arrington personally thanked billionaire Harlan Crow at the end of a “not-so-public” hearing to create a backdoor commission to cut Social Security. Republicans have taken the side of billionaires in the fight for Social Security’s future. Shameful.

If Democrats re-take Congress in this year’s midterms, and then the White House in 2028, one of the most urgent tasks will be protecting Social Security and restoring health insurance for the millions whose coverage was cut to pay for Trump’s tax cuts.

A post from Senator Elizabeth Warren. The text says, "A teacher earning $60,000 pays Social Security taxes on every dollar she earns. A worker earning $184,500 does too.

Social Security’s trust fund will be depleted in 2032 if Congress does not act– meaning payroll taxes would only be able to pay about 78% of scheduled benefits. For many seniors, a 22% reduction could mean the difference between staying above or falling below the poverty line.
