Not-so-fun fact: John Sununu left the Senate in 2009 with a Lifetime Pro-Retiree score of just NINE PERCENT. He's never been a friend to older Americans, instead working and voting to cut the benefits we paid for over a lifetime of work.

🚨 Millionaires have already stopped paying into Social Security for the rest of the year, and it isn't even spring yet! Join ARA state presidents in taking a stand — tell Congress to #ScrapTheCap and protect Social Security for years to come: https://ow.ly/WECk50YtMy5
🚨 Seniors were already struggling to pay for necessities, and now oil prices are at a record high thanks to Trump's war. Experts predict they won't get back to where they were until 2032!! We need a Congress that will hold Trump accountable and focus on our needs.
Today, Alliance Executive Director Rich Fiesta appeared with House Ways and Means Dems in support of a resolution investigating DOGE's mishandling of sensitive Social Security data. This was a grave breach of public trust, and those responsible must be held accountable. Watch his full remarks ⬇️
According to Scott Bessent, being upset that Americans are dipping into savings to pay for necessities like gas and groceries is a "doomer view." Most retirees live on a fixed income. We MUST elect a Congress that will bring DOWN the cost of food, utilities, gas, and medicine.
As social media continues to get more sophisticated, so do the scammers. Justin Brookman of Consumer Reports explains how bad actors are taking advantage of older adults — and how easy social media makes it for them.
"It's pretty simple: Without new revenue, Social Security will not be able to cover full benefits. And that will start in 2032." @whitehouse.senate.gov doesn't mince words. If Social Security is going to stay strong for generations, we need to #ScrapTheCap and make the rich pay their fair share.
Candidate Trump, one year ago: "I’m not going to touch Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid." President Trump, April 2026: "It's not possible for us to take care of daycare, Medicaid, Medicare, all these individual things."
Last week, billionaire Scott Bessent said Americans hadn't paid that much more for gas since the war with Iran started. Billionaires might not notice the difference, but the rest of us are making tough choices to make ends meet. We need to elect a Congress that will lower prices for all of us.
