Sherrod Brown Petition: 78 more years of Social Security

from my email ...







Dear Scuba,

For more than three quarters of a century, Social Security has meant a great deal to our country.

If you get hurt and become disabled, Social Security is there for you. If a loved one dies, Social Security is there for your family. And if you work all your life and play by the rules, Social Security is there for you when you retire.

Social Security isn’t a bargaining chip, it’s an earned benefit. Yet right now Republicans in the House are threatening to hold America’s credit rating hostage unless we approve cuts to Social Security.

I’m joining with Sens. Hagan, Merkley, Peters and Mark Udall to make sure Social Security is around for another seventy-eight years. We need you to join us. Click here to add your name and stand with me to protect Social Security.

Thank you for joining us to preserve Social Security for this and future generations.



Sherrod
