December 13, 2016


With only days remaining in the current session of Congress, Rep. Sam Johnson (R-TX), Chairman of the powerful Ways and Means Social Security subcommittee, introduced a bill that would destroy Social Security's promise to U.S. families.

The "Social Security Reform Act" is a greatest hits compilation of Social Security cuts.
It raises the retirement age, makes yearly COLAs smaller, cuts Social Security benefits for children and spouses of disabled and retired workers, and eliminates the taxes millionaires and billionaires pay on their Social Security benefits.

VIRTUALLY EVERY SINGLE PROVISION CONTAINED IN JOHNSON'S PLAN AMOUNTS TO A DRAMATIC CUT IN SOCIAL SECURITY BENEFITS.

SIGN THE PETITION TODAY OPPOSING REPUBLICANS' DANGEROUS
"SOCIAL SECURITY REFORM ACT" TO DESTROY OUR EARNED BENEFITS
