Dear Sen/Rep -

I saw the new report from the Penn Wharton Budget Model that says Social Security is six years from insolvency. Their dynamic model says the way to boost GDP and surge private capital is to cut Social Security benefits to seniors now and cut them aggressively.

I am here to say NO to that.

The 7% of Americans who make more than $176,100 a year can afford to pay more.

Please draft legislation to lift the Social Security income cap. People making more than $176,100 have plenty of money to pay more taxes. Getting rid of the cap would leave Social Security solvent for decades to come. Frame it as the patriotic duty of the top 7% of earners.

The current Republican budget, combined with the war this Republican Administration just started, is pushing this country into insolvency. The massive growth in the national debt is accelerating the timeline at which cuts to Social Security, Medicare, and more cuts to Medicaid will be required. Major cuts to these programs would be triggered by the Statutory Pay-As-You-Go (PAYGO) Act of 2010, which requires mandatory across-the-board spending cuts if Congress passes legislation that increases the federal deficit.

I think Republicans want to trigger these cuts.

Now is the time to push legislation to remove the social security income cap.
