Congress: Hands off Social Security and Medicare!

Congress has re-introduced the TRUST Act, which could put your hard-earned Social Security and Medicare benefits on the chopping block.

This is unacceptable. Social Security is the largest source of retirement income for most Americans, and Medicare guarantees Americans 65+ much-needed health coverage. Tell Congress: Oppose the TRUST Act and protect Social Security and Medicare now and in the future.

Dear Decision Maker,

Message Body

I’m your constituent and an AARP member, and I’m asking you to OPPOSE the TRUST Act, which would put my hard-earned Social Security and Medicare benefits at the mercy of a fast-tracked, closed door committee.

The TRUST Act would establish small Rescue Committees to propose changes for Social Security and Medicare. If only seven members from the Rescue Committees approve bill language, it would be fast-tracked in the House and Senate, with no allowed amendments from the rest of Congress.

This is unacceptable and unfair to all Americans who pay into and count on these programs. Social Security is the largest source of retirement income for most Americans and provides nearly all income for one in four seniors. Across age groups and parties, the American public overwhelmingly supports Social Security. And Medicare guarantees Americans 65+ much-needed health coverage.

I expect my elected representatives to be careful stewards of these programs. People 50+ have faced enormous consequences from the global pandemic, and we will not tolerate any cuts to programs that are critical to our health and income. Please, oppose the TRUST Act and any legislation that could rob Americans of their hard-earned Social Security and Medicare benefits.

Thank you.
