Candidate Haley Lays Out Four Specific Fixes for Social Security and Medicare - Fox News Channel/YouTube

In a FoxNews Channel/YouTube video circulating today on the internet, 2024 Republican Presidential candidate Nikki Hakey chided her opponents for taking a “hands off” stance on the need for Social Security and Medicare reform. She outlined her plan to address the solvency problems facing these two senior benefit programs via these steps:

• Changing the retirement age for younger workers to reflect changes in life expectancy
• Modify the cost-of-living adjustment process to base changes on inflation
• Impose benefit limits on the wealthy
• Expand Medicare Advantage plans to create competition among providers

Candidate Haley stressed that “no one has to worry that you are going to lose what you paid in or what you gave,” adding that “America should always keep her promises and we have to live by that.” Her remarks suggested that the “do nothing/no changes” approach advocated by opponents is irresponsible and that the appropriate course of action is to get in front of the problem with changes that will preserve the programs for future generations.
