BREAKING: Trump moves to cut Social Security and Medicare

Voornaam,

Donald Trump is laying the groundwork to make big cuts to Social Security and Medicare.

Trump signed Executive Orders this weekend that would delay the collection of payroll taxes, which fund Social Security and Medicare.

At a time when seniors and people with disabilities are struggling to deal with the threat of COVID-19, Trump is putting their hard-earned Social Security and Medicare in danger, and threatening to cut off a critical lifeline in this moment of uncertainty.

As with so many of Trump's actions these days, it's unclear whether his actions are even legal. And what's more, they could create a huge tax bill for workers and small businesses in December.

Make no mistake: Social Security and Medicare are on the ballot this November. If Trump wins, he's promised to permanently cut the funding for these vital programs that hundreds of millions of Americans rely on.

Democrats will never stop fighting to protect Social Security and Medicare. But we need your help to make sure we defeat Trump and elect Oregon Democrats up and down the ballot this fall. If you're able, will you chip in $5, $10, $25, or whatever you can to support our work?

Thank you,

– Oregon Democrats
