Social Security Talking Points
Social Security is the safety net for nearly two thirds of retirees—providing them with over half of their overall income. In fact, half of all Americans haven’t even been able to put away more than $10,000 retirement—further emphasizing the need for this program.

As it stands currently, Social Security is scheduled to fall by 25% after 2034 if immediate action isn’t taken—and many elected officials would like to see that happen. Despite being something that you have paid into your entire working career, many elected officials inaccurately refer to Social Security as an unsustainable entitlement, rather than the insurance policy it is. Learn more about efforts to save this program.

CSEA understands how necessary a defined benefit program is in order to secure yourself a retirement in dignity, but opponents are constantly trying to convince the public they are unsustainable. Take a look at these talking points so that you are armed with the facts!
