National Call-In Day Underway
By NCPSSM | January 19, 2010
Tomorrow the Senate will consider a proposal to create a fast-track commission targeting Social Security and Medicare for cuts. Fiscal hawks in Congress have selectively redefined our debt and deficit problem in order to fit their preconceived solutions — cutting Social Security and Medicare – and they see this commission as the best political way to get that job done. Rather than address the real causes of our national debt including; a decade of borrow and spend policies, skyrocketing health care costs, tax cuts for the wealthiest Americans and two unfunded wars some in Congress are intent on making Social Security and Medicare pay the price.
Of course, this makes no sense especially for the millions of Americans and their families who know that without Social Security and Medicare, this economic collapse would have been even more devastating for so many. That why today is the National Call-In Day for Americans to tell their members of Congress…Vote NO on this undemocratic commission proposal.
