Time is tentative pending the government shutdown.

Social Security is under attack. New rules will cut benefits, reduce eligibility and make it more difficult to access earned benefits as Social Security has pushed out thousands of its most experienced and knowledgeable workers.  Social Security field offices are being closed while new rules force people to visit offices in person.  Cuts to Medicare and Medicaid are forcing community hospitals to close. Doctors, scientists and health professionals are being attacked while access to life-saving vaccinations is being politicized and doctors ignored.    

Its time for Latinos and others to say enough is enough and join together to protect our elders.

Please join us for the relaunch of the Latinos for a Secure Retirement coalition and launch of Seguro Social Adelante. Confirmed speakers include:

  • Representative Delia Ramirez
