Groceries, gas and Social Security

Congress is basically broken. You’ll likely work around 260 days this year just to pay your bills and feed your family, yet Congress has only met 72 days.

At the same time, the rich keep getting richer while everyday families are having a hard time. Vote your pocketbook.

Same choices, same results

People may run for office with good intentions, but few can resist becoming part of the broken Washington, DC system.

Is your Representative focusing on your family’s needs, or the needs of the rich and powerful?

Gas prices are too high. Congress is not ending the war with Iran that is causing the pain at the pump.
We pay more for everything we buy. But it’s businesses getting the rebates from the illegal tarrifs causing this, not us.
Data centers and A.I. are taking our water, electricity and jobs. Why is Congress not setting guardrails?

Another thing these members of Congress are not doing is holding inperson town halls in their districts. If we don’t have access to our politicians, how can anything change?

Blue collars, family budgets

These challengers are our neighbors who will not only work to make our lives affordable now, but also in the future by passing the Social Security Expansion Act.

They, and U.S. Senate candidate Peggy Flanagan, refuse corporate campaign money. No private company makes a buck off Social Security, which makes it less of a priority for some who are career politicians. It’s a program for American workers, paid for by the workers themselves, and has kept retirees out of poverty for more than 90 years.

The Social Security Expansion Act will:

Completely fund Social Security for 75+ years.
Increase benefits $200/month to make up for lost buying power.
Ensure everyone pays the same fair share by raising the cap on contributions.

Social Security Expansion Act

How YOU can can help it pass

Minnesotans working to pass the Expansion Act

To voters, protecting the future of Social Security is not a partisan issue. In an AARP poll from this summer, Social Security has a 95 percent approval regardless of the age or political affiliation of those polled.

But Minnesota’s two major political parties in Minnesota do not agree. The Minnesota GOP passed a resolution at its recent convention to “phase out” Social Security, while the DFL passed a resolution to pass the Expansion Act.
