Presidential candidates Tim Scott, Ron DeSantis, Chris Christie and Nikki Haley have all publicly said they want to make today’s 30 and 40-year-olds retire later than their parents. And Donald Trump proposed cuts to Social Security every year he was President. These politicians want today’s young people to pay into Social Security their whole lives, and then accept less than our parents in retirement. We will not accept less than our parents got, and grandparents will not take a secure retirement away from our grandkids. We will NOT raise the retirement age!

 

John,

 

A whopping 96% of Americans agree: Social Security is one of, if not THE, most important government programs.

 

It’s rare for that many Americans to agree on anything. For those keeping score at home, Congress only has a 19% approval rating which means Social Security is 77% more popular than Congress.

 

So why are so many Republican politicians trying to make us work until we die?

 

Multiple Republican presidential candidates and now the Republican Study Committee, the LARGEST House Republican group (including Idaho Rep. Russ Fulcher), are pushing to raise the retirement age – denying us and our kids the right to a dignified retirement.

 

Our Social Security system was built over nearly a century, brick by brick, always getting stronger and lifting millions of seniors out of poverty. But today’s greedy politicians want to weaken it and tear it down so that their wealthy Wall Street donors don’t have to pay another dime.

 

While they *are* clever enough not to try and cut benefits for current retirees, these cynical politicians think my nearly 106-year-old grandma won’t care if they screw over me and my sons as long as they promise not to touch her benefits. It’s time to show them how wrong they are.

 

I am proud to partner with Social Security Works, Blue Future and others to send a clear message: Do NOT touch the retirement age!

 

When we say “Hands Off Our Social Security,” we don’t mean just for current beneficiaries. We mean every American who pays in to the system over a lifetime of hard work deserves their benefits, and those benefits cannot be cut. Social Security is a sacred promise, and NO politician can be allowed to break it. 

 

Sign now: Hands off our Social Security!

 

Onward,

 

David Roth

         

David Roth is a single, gay dad running for Idaho’s Second Congressional District. We’re going up against a GOP incumbent who has been in this seat for almost 25 years. It’s time for change in Idaho, and our grassroots campaign is building on the momentum that began in David’s race for U.S. Senate last cycle. The GOP is not planning to defend this seat, so we plan to take it from them and help Democrats retake the House majority next year. We’d love your support to build a solid campaign to bring progress to Idaho and the country.
