Just got an E-Mail from Rep. Paul Ryan.

He was part of an E-Mail bombing run I pulled on my states legeslators over Linda Sanchez's HR 3118 "Strengthening Social Security Act of 2013". He said this

Thank you for contacting me regarding H.R. 3118, the Strengthening Social Security Act of 2013. I appreciate you taking the time to let me know your views on this important issue.

As you may know, Representative Linda Sanchez introduced H.R. 3118 on September 17, 2013. This bill would change the benefit calculation for the formula the Social Security Administration (SSA) uses, change the way the SSA calculates the Cost of Living Adjustments, and phase out the current taxable cap of $113,700. It was referred to the House Committee on Ways and Means and the House Committee on Education and the Workforce on September 17, 2013. H.R. 3118 is currently pending in these committees.

Thank you again for contacting me on this issue. I will continue to follow this piece of legislation carefully. As a member of the Ways and Means Committee, I will certainly keep your thoughts in mind.

In the meantime, if you wish to share additional information with me concerning this issue, please feel free to contact me by calling, emailing, writing, or faxing me. Please be advised that mail sent to my Washington office is subject to an additional two-week delay due to increased mail security.

If I can be of further assistance to you regarding this or any other matter, please do not hesitate to contact me. I am always happy to respond and be of service to you.
Sincerely,

Paul Ryan



It seems he knows what the bill does, however he skips the part where he says anything about how he was ordered by his masters to vote.
