Steve Cohen on Social Security

Oppose the Bush "private accounts" Wall Street windfall

People, especially those with low incomes, are understandably worried about the future stability of Social Security. The biggest threats to Social Security, in addition to Congressional spinelessness, are the massive U.S. debts that have been allowed to undermine the economy in the past six years. I will work to strengthen Social Security. I oppose the Bush "private accounts" designed to create a windfall for Wall Street.
