Members of Congress and Max Richtman (President of NCPSSM) met today to discuss Medicare and the Ryan Budget.
The Ryan Budget would END traditional Medicare and hurt seniors.
We are so thankful for our wonderful volunteers!
Here one of our volunteers is meeting with Rep. Tammy Duckworth.
Congresswoman Duckworth Speaks at National Committee to Preserve Social Security and Medicare Rally
Congresswoman Tammy Duckworth spoke at a National Committee to Preserve Social Security and Medicare Rally in Des Plaines, Illinois. Duckworth has made preserving the guaranteed benefits of Social Security and Medicare a top priority as a member of Congress. “We cannot balance the budget by abandoning our commitments to senior citizens and working Americans,” said Duckworth. “We need to focus on how we can cut the $1 billion in Medicare fraud each week, excessive subsidies for oil and gas companies and sizeable tax breaks for large corporations.”
Thank you to Representative Tammy Duckworth for standing up for Social Security and Medicare!
That’s a wrap!
We had a great petition delivery event at Frisbie Senior Center in Des Plaines, Illinois. Representative’s Jan Schakowsky, Bill Foster, and Tammy Duckworth was present to say a few words of support for preserving Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid.
