As our Social Security on the Ballot campaign draws to a close, polling suggests that midterm candidates who support strengthening the program (and oppose benefit cuts) will largely prevail on Tuesday. "Even if Social Security isn’t voters’ top issue, per se, it plays into the number one concern in this campaign: Affordability," says Max Richtman, NCPSSM President and PAC board member. "Social Security is a lifeline for seniors on fixed incomes who are being squeezed by ever-rising prices in Trump’s economy.  Ditto for younger voters struggling to afford housing, health insurance, and student debt payments -- who will need every dollar of their earned benefits."
