Voters Overwhelmingly Oppose the Social Security Cutting “Eagle Plan”
Asking people to give up future Social Security benefits in return for cash now is extremely unpopular, particularly among older voters
(Washington, DC) — Several of Donald Trump’s advisors, including Jared Kushner, support the so-called “Eagle Plan” which would give people cash, but only if they forfeit a portion of their future Social Security benefits.
Today, Social Security Works and Data for Progress released new polling showing that this plan is far less popular than progressive coronavirus relief measures — even among Republican voters. It is particularly unpopular among voters over 45.
55% of voters want the government to expand unemployment insurance and send out $2,000 monthly checks vs. 20% who support the Eagle Plan
Given this choice, only 16% of voters over 45 support the Eagle Plan Even Republican voters are more than twice as likely to support expanded unemployment insurance and monthly checks (44%) as to support the Eagle Plan (20%)
“Seniors are rightfully furious at Donald Trump,” said Alex Lawson, Executive Director of Social Security Works. “Nursing homes across the country are turning into death traps. Yet instead of supporting comprehensive legislation to address this crisis Trump’s advisors are focused on forcing people to choose between going hungry now and working until they die.”

Thursday, July 23, 2020 Linda Benesch, McConnell’s COVID Response: Cut Social Security
(Washington, DC) — The following is a statement from Nancy Altman, President of Social Security Works, in response to Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) announcing that the TRUST Act is included in the Republican coronavirus package:
“The TRUST Act creates a closed-door process to fast track cuts to Social Security. It is a way to undermine the economic security of Americans without political accountability.
Donald Trump, Mitch McConnell, and all Congressional Republicans have made their priorities clear. In the midst of a catastrophic pandemic, they should be focused on protecting seniors, essential workers, and the unemployed. Instead, they are plotting to use the cover of the pandemic to slash Social Security.
It is no surprise that seniors are increasingly turning against the Republican Party. They are doing nothing to protect seniors and people with disabilities; rather, they are working overtime to cut our earned benefits.
Republicans claim that the TRUST Act is about deficit reduction, but that is patently false. Even conservative president Ronald Reagan understood that Social Security does not add a penny to the deficit.
Democrats must stand united and unequivocally reject any package that includes the TRUST Act.”

Payroll Tax Cuts Open Door to Harmful Social Security Cuts August 8th, 2020|Latest News, News Releases
News Release
“President Trump’s repeated insistence on a payroll tax cut via his latest Executive Order, will not only undermine the funding streams for Social Security and Medicare, it creates a high-risk environment for programs that have been the target of fiscal conservatives for decades.
Payroll tax cuts are an ineffective means of economic stimulus and provide zero relief to the millions of unemployed. Most importantly, payroll tax cuts interfere with the revenue flowing to Social Security and Medicare, programs which workers will be even more dependent on in their future retirement years. Make no mistake: payroll tax cuts are the first step in dismantling Americans’ earned benefits.
The President promised not to touch Social Security and Medicare. This Executive Order breaches that promise and puts Americans on notice that his real intention is to put their earned Social Security and Medicare benefits on the chopping block, essentially trading the nation’s finest safety net programs for votes.” – National Committee to Preserve Social Security and Medicare

Donald Trump: If Reelected, I will “Terminate” Social Security FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:
Saturday, August 8, 2020
(Washington, DC) — The following is a statement from Nancy Altman, President of Social Security Works, in response to Donald Trump’s press conference in which he promised to “terminate” FICA contributions, Social Security’s dedicated revenue, if he is reelected:
“Donald Trump once promised that he would be ‘the only Republican that doesn’t want to cut Social Security.’ We now know that what he meant is that cutting Social Security doesn’t go far enough for him: He wants to destroy Social Security.
Donald Trump’s executive order, which seeks to defer Social Security contributions, is bad enough. But his promise to ‘terminate’ FICA contributions if he is reelected is a full-on declaration of war against current and future Social Security beneficiaries.
Social Security is the foundation of everyone’s retirement security. At a time when pensions are vanishing and 401ks have proven inadequate, Trump’s plan to eliminate Social Security’s revenue stream would destroy the one source of retirement income that people can count on. Moreover, Social Security is often the only disability insurance and life insurance that working families have. If reelected, Trump plans to destroy those benefits as well.
Every member of Congress must speak up now to denounce Donald Trump’s unconstitutional raid on Social Security. Voters should treat any Senator or Representative who is silent as complicit in destroying Social Security. Furthermore, every American who cares about Social Security’s future must do everything they can to ensure that Trump does not get a second term.”
