Alliance for Retired Americans

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.

Trump said over and over he would NOT touch Medicaid or Medicare. Then last week, he said there isn't enough money to pay for it. If he thinks we don't remember, he's sorely mistaken.
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.
🚨 News flash: When you're on a fixed income — like most seniors — skyrocketing gas prices aren't "peanuts." Our president, and every member of Congress, need to get their priorities straight.
💪 Our National Meeting in Las Vegas last week was full of inspirational speakers and guests. Get a recap with this great video from IAM Union!
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.
According to Trump, TrumpRx helps people save up to 600% on prescription drugs. 🤨 If that were true, we'd be given free money when we go to the pharmacy to pickup our drugs. Reality: his tax law prevents the makers of HUNDREDS of drugs from ever having to negotiate lower prices with Medicare.
"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.
Last month, Sen. Bernie Moreno said the following: "There should be no reason why we should have a cap on Social Security wages. If you make income just like anybody else, you should have to pay Social Security wages." We're not going to let him forget it. We need to #ScrapTheCap!
🚨 When Trump let slip that he doesn't think about the American people's finances, seniors everywhere heard. That's why Michigan Alliance President Jim Pedersen wants you to vote in November: We need leaders who will hold Trump accountable and put us first!

Your sandwich is your logo. Shopify brands obsess over fonts + founders. Sandwich shops obsess over flavor. If the product isn’t craveable, nothing else matters. Brand ≠ what you say Brand = what they taste and tell others Make a better sandwich.
