The Social Security and Medicare Trustees annual report released today outlines a disturbing reality—Medicare will become insolvent in the next 6 years and Social Security will be in the same boat by 2035. All of this before the impacts of #COVID19 are even assessed.
When these trust funds run dry, seniors could face dramatic cuts to their benefits, American workers could face a steep tax increase, or we could add trillions onto our already enormous debt. All of these options are unacceptable.
Once we overcome the #COVID19 crisis, addressing the looming insolvency of our federal trust funds must be one of Congress’s top priorities. I urge my colleagues to co-sponsor the #TRUSTact and help rescue these important programs before it is too late. romney.senate.gov/romney-stateme…

California law requires a public accounting for counties engaged in immigration enforcement, for ex. transferring people to ICE custody. One of many state policies enacted in response to a decade of expansion of jail deportation operations. #truthforum #truthact #transparency
The hundreds of #sanctuarycities across the country are also part of this reaction to unprecedented expansion of federal deportations programs trying to utilize local and state resources. #TheySaidNope #EndSCOMM #Basta287g #SafeCommunitiesAct #TrustAct #NoICEAccess
