	Conor Lamb on Social Security

Preserve and protect Social Security and Medicare

Q: What are your top three priorities in office?

A: My top three priorities in Congress will be to preserve and protect Social Security, Medicare, and affordable health care; to push for an infrastructure bill will create good jobs and repair our aging roads, bridges and locks and dams; and to take action to combat the heroin epidemic.

Fight all attempts to cut into social security benefits

It didn't take long for the Republican leadership to make clear that once they drove this nation another $1.5 trillion in debt, they were going to use that as an excuse to cut the programs seniors depend on and paid into. They call this "entitlement reform," --that is just fancy Washington talk for taking the money you paid your whole working life and using it to cover the trillion dollars they just added to the debt. It's not right, and I will fight every attempt to break the promises we made. Source: 2018 Congress PA-18 election website ConorLamb.com , Mar 13, 2018
