Social Security can be considered one of the major hallmarks of progressivism : It turned what was formerly almost sure poverty for millions of aging Americans into a secure retirement. But George W. Bush's plan would remove that security, throw seniors' retirement to the stock market, and bring in a windfall for Wall Street. The good news is that not everyone in Congress—including some Republicans—is on board with the plan . That's why it's so important to tell your elected officials now that you don't want to see Social Security privatized. Whether you act with MoveOn or with the AFL-CIO, make sure you act now! Go to MoveOn's Action. Go to AFL-CIO Action.
