• DOGE administrator is hired
• Cuts HHS workforce by 22%
• Gives spouse a cushy fake job at HHS
It’s the same story again and again: loot & destroy our government, profit through harm. Don’t let them take what’s ours.
New: Amy Gleason was the acting administrator of DOGE as it worked to slash the size of the federal workforce through layoffs and incentivizing employees to quit.
Her husband got hired at an under-the-radar division of HHS just 33 days after widespread layoffs at the agency

Republicans call Social Security a "Ponzi scheme" and talk about making cuts.
Democrats have plans to scrap the cap and real fixes to make sure you get YOUR money.
You get to choose what happens with your voice and vote on Election Day.

I’m mildly disabled at age 79 but still going back out tomorrow because the map has expanded & there’s more work to do. I’ll be in emerging district NV-02 & also in CA-06 not far away.
I try not to predict but just run thru the tape…but there is going to be a #BlueWaveIn5Days

Unearthed audio: Republican Senate candidate Mike Collins says he wants to kick people off Social Security and force them to go "back into the workforce"

Max Miller said people have been "using Social Security as a safety net when it was" never "supposed" to be one.
My parents moved in with me because Social Security wasn't enough of a safety net.
That's the difference in this race.

The two best looking guys in CO-08 & see if you can guess which one is House candidate @MannyRutinel. That one’s also a Colorado state rep who graduated from Yale. The other guy went to Columbia.
Manny’s dynamic, smart &, well, young too! That’s a hint.

In 2018, when @RepJasonCrow first ran, I did an endorsement event for him at Windcrest Senior Living & hundreds showed up. I knew then he was a very special candidate who’s now become a superb House member.
Great to see Jason yesterday @SEIU’s canvass launch for @MannyRutinel.

@MannyRutinel, @Hickenlooper, @SenatorBennet & me in CO-08 at Manny’s canvass kickoff this morning. I endorsed Manny on behalf of @SSWorksPAC & @SSWorks. @RepJasonCrow was there too, one of my favorite endorsees from 2018!

Seniors earned every penny of their Social Security. They paid into it with every paycheck. It is not a slush fund for Washington politicians to cut or delay.

Republicans think the only way to save Social Security is to cut benefits—they just talk in euphemisms.
Democrats have better solutions, like finally scrapping the cap and making billionaires pay their fair share.

Ken Paxton has said Social Security should be privatized and joked that beneficiaries will have to “suck it up” and accept the cut.
@JamesTalarico will defend Social Security and increase benefits by making the wealthiest Americans to pay the same tax rate the rest of us do.

Another blatant abuse of Social Security data to promote political messages for Donald Trump — hundreds of millions of voter contact emails promoting Trump propaganda.
And all paid for by the Social Security Trust fund.

@SamForstag goes on offense on Social Security at our press conference this morning!!!
ONLY Sam has a plan to
protect & expand the program, so his privatizer opponent Aaron Flint, should never bring it up!

A campaign is only as good as its activists. Wow, did they turn out on the courthouse steps in Missoula for @SamForstag!!! Here we all are getting ready for our press conference to begin. Every senior issues advocacy org that endorses endorsed Sam, including my @SSW PAC!!!

Juan Ciscomani says he'll protect your earned benefits.
But in 2024, he voted to cut $453 MILLION from the SSA.
JoAnna Mendoza won't cut Social Security. In fact, she promises to protect your checks by making sure the wealthy pay their fair share.

🚨 Mike Rogers, Senate candidate from Michigan, compares cutting Social Security to making an adjustment with a screwdriver, like a leaky faucet.
That's just not true, Mike. For most seniors, Social Security is a lifeline - and it's money we earned. #HandsOff
