SIGN NOW: Demand all Democratic presidential candidates endorse expanding Social Security

All 2020 Democratic Presidential Candidates

The American people demand that our elected officials protect and expand Social Security. And yet, we see some Democratic presidential candidates running timidly on this very issue―moving away from expansion, and even offering cuts in the form of means testing or a benefit cutting chained CPI.

Amongst the field of 23 candidates (and counting) are members of Congress who are part of the Expand Social Security Caucus: Bernie Sanders, Elizabeth Warren, Cory Booker, Kamala Harris, Kirsten Gillibrand, and several others. This is a good start, but it’s not enough!

We need all 2020 Democratic presidential candidates to run on protecting and expanding Social Security.

Sign the petition demanding that each one make protecting and expanding Social Security a pillar of their campaign.

Democrats have an opportunity to draw a clear distinction on an issue that is critical to the financial and retirement security of millions of Americans. Protecting and expanding Social Security is one of the very few issues that crosses partisan divides with a majority of Democrats, Republicans and independents demanding a safe and secure retirement for current and future generations. We demand that you make protecting and expanding Social Security a pillar of your campaigns.
