Expand Social Security

Created by D.C. on December 03, 2013

Bring the Social Security eligibility age back down to 65 for all workers. The people who need Social Security the most are rarely those who can continue their jobs into their 70s. The rationale for raising the age was increasing life expectancy, but the life expectancy of blue collar workers has been flat for decades.

Reducing Social Security benefits means shifting the burden of care to middle class families, and forcing seniors to remain in the job market means fewer jobs for young Americans and lower wages for all.

Do what's right for America and fight back against attempts to privatize our social safety net.
