Received another e-mail regarding Social Security today but this one came from Senator Tom Udall (D. NM):
Social Security was there for my parent's generation. It’s there for my generation. And I want to make sure it’s there for my kids, their kids, and generations to come.
For 78 years, Social Security has been protecting the financial security of our seniors. It’s been a safety net for disabled Americans, and those who’ve lost loved ones. It’s been a promise to seniors that if you work hard and pay your dues, we will support you when you retire.
We cannot break that promise.
On this anniversary of Social Security, join me in renewing the call to protect Social Security. Sign on today:

Today nearly all of New Mexico citizens 65 years or older receive Social Security benefits, and has helped lift countless retirees out of poverty. Right now, 1 in 6 New Mexico residents receive Social Security.
All of those people can’t afford to see their benefits cut. They can’t afford to see their financial security privatized, and tied to the unstable fluctuations of the market.
We need to make sure that any changes to Social Security are made with the intent of strengthening the system for seniors today, and preserving it for generations of seniors to come.
Please stand with me and the thousands of New Mexicans who have signed the petition to protect Social Security:

Thank you for your support.
