Dear Friends,
On Monday, May 6th, I will be hosting a discussion on the future of Social Security. Social Security isn't an entitlement, it's the insurance you've paid for. It is the working American's retirement guarantee, providing economic security for millions of Americans including seniors, people with disabilities, and children and spouses who have lost a provider. We need to enhance the program's benefits so that no one who has worked their whole life retires into poverty.
In addition to Social Security, there are others ways you can start saving for your future. 401k individual retirement accounts and other types of IRAs are supplemental ways to begin saving for your future. The earlier you start saving into these accounts, the more you can accrue.
Financial literacy includes, not just have access to general information, but also being aware of your own personal financial information. Here are ways to improve your financial literacy and stay on top of your personal financial information:

This morning, Representative John Larson (D-CT), Chair of the Social Security Subcommittee of the House Ways and Means Committee, announced the introduction of the Social Security 2100 Act. He informed those in attendance and those around the country watching online that the bill has over 200 original cosponsors. That many original cosponsors is truly remarkable and underscores how important and wise the legislation is.
More than 200 House Democrats on Wednesday reintroduced legislation that would expand Social Security benefits and gradually ramp up how much workers contribute to the social insurance program.
