The human chain against Social Security cuts!
The Strengthen Social Security Coalition and the Congressional Progressive Caucus have organized a human chain against cuts in Social Security.
Congressional Democrats are joining the pushback against Social Security and Medicare cuts:
At a press conference of the Congressional Progressive Caucus led by Rep. Keith Ellison (D-Minn.), the group said they arent waiting to see if the murmurs that its a possibility become reality.
We are each others brother and sisters keeper, Ellison said. Our citizens are precious to us. And our American citizens with disabilities are precious to us. And nobody under the bus.
Ellison was joined by more than 20 other members and dozens of activists.
They give their blood, their sweat, their tears, and they sacrifice and they expect certain things at the end of their retirement, Rep. Elijah Cummings (D-Md.) said. One of the things that definitely expect is to live in dignity.
