Tonight in Brooklyn, we’re talking about what’s at stake for New Yorkers, our communities and our economy, and why protecting Social Security matters to every generation. #ProtectingThePromise
The challenges facing Social Security are real. But they are solvable.
We cannot wait until 2032 to act. Americans deserve certainty that the Social Security they’ve earned will be there when they need it.
