Congressman Braley,
We members of the Pocahontas County
Democratic Central Committee ask you to join Representatives Grayson
and Takano in sigining this letter to the White House:
“We will vote against any and every
cut to Medicare, Medicaid, or Social Security benefits -- including
raising the retirement age or cutting the cost of living adjustments
that our constituents earned and need.”
Twenty-one Members of Congress have
signed this letter. Current signers include Reps. Brown, Cartwright,
Conyers, DeFazio, Ellison, Faleomavaega, Green, Grijalva, Gutierrez,
Hastings, Kaptur, Lee, McGovern, Nadler, Napolitano, Nolan, Serrano,

The letter has also earned the
endorsement of many groups fighting for middle-class Americans,
including: Social Security Works, The National Nurses United,

Progressives, the Strengthen Social Security Coalition, Progressive
Democrats of America, Working Families Party, Rebuild the Dream,
