Elon Musk called Social Security a Ponzi scheme and Donald Trump called it a scam. Make no mistake - they want to slash & privatize Americans' benefits. My resolution compels them to provide answers, but Republicans are trying to stop it from even coming to a vote in the House.

🚨Trump’s VA just canceled maternity leave for new and expecting parents - even mothers giving birth THIS WEEK. That is beyond cruel. Our workers deserve better, and I stand shoulder to shoulder with them in this fight.

Last week, the VA was the first federal agency to terminate a union contract.

As #SocialSecurity turns 90, Americans are rising up to defend their EARNED BENEFITS from Trump's 'DOGE' attacks. I joined @MIFairCare, @ForOurFutureMI, and @SSWorks to demand action. I'm working with @repkmr and @HouseDemocrats to not only protect but enhance Social Security.

The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau has put more than $21 BILLION back in Americans’ pockets. Donald Trump and his ‘DOGE’ are dismantling it to shield fraudsters from accountability. We’ll continue to fight this attack on working families in the courts and in Congress!.

Thank you to everyone who came out to mark the 90th anniversary of #SocialSecurity in East Hartford this morning. It's not enough to celebrate Social Security - we must protect it from Trump's privatization scheme and enhance benefits so our seniors can keep up with rising costs.
