Since its implementation in 1935, Social Security has played a crucial role in protecting the most vulnerable in our country and, as a result, has become indispensable to the American way of life. Strengthening Social Security and Medicare for current recipients and those nearing retirement is one of my top priorities as your representative because I know how important these programs are to the health, well-being, and financial security of seniors in California’s 22nd Congressional District.
That is why I am proud to co-sponsor legislation like H.R. 82, the Social Security Fairness Act, which will ensure public servants can access the benefits they’ve earned through paying into Social Security and H. Res. 109, which reaffirms Congress’s continuing commitment to preserving Social Security for current and future recipients.
Protecting Social Security for seniors will continue to be one of my top priorities as your voice in Congress.
