Senator David Perdue’s long record of pushing to gut earned benefit programs like Medicare and Social Security is once again in the spotlight as Donald Trump makes the GOP’s latest threat to gut those programs. He’s voted for budget plans that would have cut Medicare by hundreds of billions of dollars, and one of his signature legislative proposals would put Medicare and Social Security on the chopping block.
Check out the cheat sheet on Perdue’s record of pushing to gut earned benefits programs:
“Senator David Perdue has spent years backing proposals that would gut Georgians’ earned benefits programs like Medicare and Social Security, so it’s no surprise that he is refusing to stand up to his party’s latest threat to put these benefits back on the chopping block,” said DSCC spokesperson Helen Kalla. “Make no mistake — with Medicare and Social Security on the ballot in 2020, Georgians know that Senator Perdue is to blame, and he cannot hide from his toxic record of trying to undermine his constituents’ retirement security.”
