Alex Mooney on Social Security

 

 


Reform Social Security to prevent insolvency & tax increases

Mooney understands the need to protect Social Security, which is on track to be insolvent by 2035, resulting in an estimated 25% decrease in benefits for recipients. Congress must act to ensure Social Security never gets to that point. Mooney is committed to working together in a bipartisan fashion to accomplish reforms to our critical Medicare and Social Security programs. By doing so, we can prevent future program insolvency, or emergency tax and spending increases to fully fund these programs.
