Congress must strengthen Social Security's finances without cuts, a position supported by 81% of older Americans, and do so transparently, in full view of the American public.AARP's Nancy LeaMond was on Capitol Hill today to testify before a Senate committee about the future of Social Security.
- Testifying before @SenFinance today, AARP's @NancyLeaMond calls on Congress to shore up Social Security’s finances in an open process. Echoing a position held by a majority of older Americans: No cuts. Period.
