Yesterday, Michigan Alliance President Jim Pedersen spoke to WNDU as he and neighbors rallied outside Rep. Tim Walberg's office, calling out his votes to cut to Medicare and Medicaid and demanding he act to keep Social Security solvent. Check out a snippet of the interview ⬇️

We're paying more for gas, groceries, and health care. W/o action, the average Social Security benefit will be cut by $500/month in 2032! Meanwhile, Trump is planning ANOTHER monument to himself no one wants or needs. November is coming. We need to vote like our lives depend on it.

Scott Bessent says Americans have paid nearly $200 more for gas since the war with Iran started. He also says it "isn't much" money. $200 isn't much for billionaires like Bessent and Trump, but for the average retiree whose Social Security check is $1400/month, it's a crisis.

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 ⬇️

🚨 Once again, Trump makes it clear: protecting our health care—Medicare and Medicaid—is NOT on his agenda. Millions of seniors and retirees depend on these programs. We can’t afford to let our voices go unheard. #ProtectOurCare #SaveMedicare

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.

Elizabeth Warren tells it like it is: TrumpRx isn't going to help many of us better afford our medication. In fact, it often makes it more difficult.

"Six years from now. That's like tomorrow." Thank you, Senator Merkley, for speaking up for Social Security — we need to keep it strong for generations to come. We can do it if we #ScrapTheCap.

🚨🚨 A former DOGE employee may have stolen millions of Americans' private, personal Social Security data, copying it onto a thumb drive. That's a crime. We're demanding transparency, prompt investigations from Congress and the SSA IG, and accountability for anyone who violated the law.

This week, Donald Trump said the quiet part out loud: He's not thinking about the American people's finances. AZ Alliance President Linda Somo shares her thoughts — and why we all need to fight back and vote this November.

We learned that Premier Ford has ordered civil servants to halt all existing and new Freedom of Information requests across all government ministries. Transparency and accountability are vital aspects of democracy, and if the Premier can’t accept this, then he should go back to his sticker company.
