This week, Alliance groups in Califonia, Georgia, Indiana, Maine, Maryland and Missouri held more celebrations of the successful program known as Social Security.
Tomorrow, the California Alliance will celebrate Social Security's long history and issue a call to protect it for future generations. Congressman Xavier Becerra will be present at tomorrow's event. He is a member of the Commission on Deficit Reduction which will make recommendations to Congress that could impact the future of Social Security and Medicare. The commission, nicknamed the "catfood commission" was recently discussed in a San Jose Demo Report.
Members of Congress attended events in numerous states. In Arizona, for example, Congressman Raul Grijalva joined over 200 Arizona Alliance members in Tucson to celebrate Social Security's successes. Grijalva reiterated his promise to vote no on commission recommendations to cut Social Security or Medicare.
