McCaskill: I Will Vote Against Social Security Cuts

[liberal N proud]

Wow -- what a response!
Last week I sent you a survey to get your input on budget priorities, and over 5,000 folks responded. I can't tell you how helpful your feedback has been -- especially right now, as fellow Democrats and I are doing everything we can to avert a disastrous government shutdown.

Your voice has been with me in Washington this week during budget discussions -- but I need your support at home, too. Make a contribution of $5 or more now to help my campaign lay the groundwork to keep fighting for you.

As a group, you told me that education, Medicare, and Social Security were top priorities -- I couldn't agree more. And I heard your concerns about environmental protection and health care coverage. In addition, you told me that we could afford cuts to Homeland Security, foreign aid, military/defense, and corporate tax breaks/subsidies.

1. I don't think anyone is going to propose cutting Social Security benefits -- if they do, I'll vote against those cuts.

I participated in her survey in addition, I blasted a letter to her asking her why she was even considering Social Security. Maybe it helped with this letter.
