For older Americans, Social Security offers some level of financial peace of mind. Today’s retirees have worked hard to get where they are and deserve to receive all that they’ve earned. However, their outlook on Social Security might not be sunny.
According to a recent report from Forbes, all generations have concerns about the future of the program. From worries that they won’t receive benefits they’ve earned to fears that the program is running out of funds, this lack of trust shows that change is needed. With potential cuts to Social Security on the horizon, it’s time for our nation’s lawmakers to act.
Clearly, the American people have lost faith in the way our government takes care of seniors. It’s time to put pressure on Congress to make changes that will benefit retirees. In order to change the outlook on Social Security, politicians need to put senior citizens first. That’s why NORA is asking Congress to take action on The COLA Act of 2021. This important bill would ensure that beneficiaries receive a cost-of-living adjustment every year. Without this boost, retirees have been left to struggle. We’re also asking Congress to reimburse seniors what they’re owed for years of missed COLAs.
If you believe that Congress isn’t doing enough for seniors, sign our petition today. Your signature can make a difference.
