STOP CHAINED CPI the effective devaluation of Social Security against inflation! No budget deal should include this!

Created by G.D. on November 15, 2012

In the upcoming debate over cuts to avoid the so called "fiscal cliff" a popular solution has been "Chained CPI" while it is not technically an immediate cut to Social Security it will in the long run be a devaluation of Social Security because the "Consumer Price Index" does not accurately reflect the cost of the middle class families that depend on Social Security. If it is allowed to pass it will decrease the COLA (Cost of Living Adjustment) over the next several years. Please fight to stop this!
