Survey of 80,000 Americans Finds Most Feel Ignored by Congress on Social Security Issues
Washington, D.C. – A new nationwide survey conducted by The Seniors Center reveals that 70% of respondents feel their voices are not heard in Washington when it comes to Social Security and retirement issues.
The survey captures growing public discontent with how elected officials are handling Social Security, an earned benefit millions of older Americans have paid into for decades.
Retired Americans have worked their entire lives and deserve to be heard. This survey confirms what we’ve long suspected—Washington is out of touch with the people who depend on Social Security the most.
The Seniors Center is calling on lawmakers to listen to their constituents and prioritize Social Security reform that protects benefits for current and future retirees.
