Time to Rescue United States’ Trusts or TRUST, Act
The Social Security Old-Age and Survivors Insurance, Social Security Disability Insurance, Medicare Hospital Insurance and Highway Trust Fund are in trouble and if nothing changes, the programs’ trust funds are expected to be depleted in the next 13 years. A new bipartisan proposal called the Time to Rescue United States’ Trusts, or TRUST Act, led by Sen.

The Association of Mature American Citizens (AMAC) believes Social Security must be preserved and modernized. This can be achieved by making modest changes in cost of living adjustments and the retirement age, with no additional taxes on workers. AMAC advocates for a bipartisan compromise, “The Social Security Guarantee Act,” taking selected portions of bills introduced by former Rep. Johnson (R-TX) and current Rep. Larson (D-CT) and merging them with the Association’s own well researched ideas. AMAC is resolute in its mission that Social Security be preserved and modernized and has gotten the attention of lawmakers in DC, meeting with a great many congressional offices and their staffs over the past several years.

This should never run out if people are paying into it. They are spending trillions in infrastructure and other programs
that this should be a #1 priority overall for americans who worked hard to receive these benefits and what about
the younger generation who have even a more difficult situation if this is to run out so to speak?
Stop messing with the SS, healthcare and more for retired americans…period! If its upgraded for the ‘good’ of the
people and not funds taken from americans, then God Bless America!
If funds are taken from the people overall, then God will see the damage and will be agitated to those who do not
uphold this resource that americans have worked for all their lives.
