One of the clear differences between me and my Republican opponent is on Social Security and Medicare.
I believe that if you work hard all your life and pay into the system, you should expect the same benefits as the generations of American seniors who have come before you.
There are things we can do right now to protect Social Security and Medicare. We can raise the income cap on Social Security contributions. We can allow those under Medicare eligibility age to buy in to the program.
But instead of doing those things, Republicans in Congress talk about privatizing these programs. And the seniors I've heard from are totally opposed to that.
One of those seniors is Vince. He cares about protecting Social Security and Medicare, just as much as he cares about his grandchildren getting a good public education. Here's what Vince has to say:
In Congress, I'll listen to seniors like Vince. If you want to elect someone who will work to strengthen Social Security and Medicare, not privatize it, donate $25, $50, or $75 today.
Let's protect the retirement, care, and dignity our Pinellas seniors deserve.
Thanks,
