Dear friend,
Ted Cruz just let what he called a "dirty little secret" slip: a new tactic Republicans are pushing to privatize Social Security.
Cruz just admitted that the new "Trump accounts" for babies are designed to create a pathway to move Social Security away from our public system and into private hands.
If we don’t act now, the very foundation of Social Security in America is under threat. Our Revolution has fought back against attempts to privatize our earned benefits before – and we’re ready to do it again. Bernie has a clear path forward – a bold plan not just to protect, but to *expand* Social Security.
Right now, we MUST draw a line in the sand and show Congress there’s overwhelming opposition to gutting Social Security. Will you urgently stand with Bernie and tell Congress: Stop the privatization schemes—expand Social Security now!
Trump and Cruz have a two-pronged strategy: use new "Trump accounts" as a backdoor to convince people to privatize Social Security, while slashing Social Security Administration staff, offices, and phone lines – making it harder for people to get the benefits they’ve earned.
Their goal is simple. Starve Social Security, confuse the public, and sell off our earned benefits to Wall Street.
There’s a clear solution: Bernie’s Social Security Expansion Act, which would boost monthly payments for millions. Under his plan, the vast majority of Americans would see no increase in payroll taxes – only the ultra-wealthy would finally pay their fair share.
We’ve seen this playbook before. Republicans have been trying to privatize Social Security for years, and we’ve stopped it with massive public opposition. Now we can—and must—do it again.
Together let’s send Congress an unmistakable message: hands off Social Security! Add your name and tell Congress to pass Bernie’s Social Security Expansion Act NOW.
Our Revolution members have made the difference in this fight for years – marching, calling, petitioning, and protecting the promise of Social Security. This is the next round. Every signature is another voice saying, "We will NOT let you destroy our future."
Together, let’s stand with Bernie and defend Social Security for this generation and the next.
When we organize, we win,
Our Revolution
