Demand the Washington Post stop aiding Trump’s attack on Social Security
The Washington Post and the Trump administration are running parallel campaigns to divide the American people―pitting retired workers against people with disabilities―in an attempt to achieve their ultimate goal of dismantling Social Security.
In a recent front-page article, the Post attempted to justify Trump’s argument for Social Security cuts by arguing that working-age people in rural America are using Social Security Disability Insurance as a form of unemployment insurance.
The article was based on completely inaccurate data that overcounted the number of Social Security Disability beneficiaries by literally millions.
Write the Washington Post to demand they retract their false numbers and stop their attack on Social Security beneficiaries. We’ve provided suggested email language, but please feel free to personalize the email to the Washington Post.
