February 13, 2023

East Hartford, CT - Today, Rep. John B. Larson (CT-01) released the following statement commending Senators Bernie Sanders (VT) and Elizabeth Warren (MA) and Reps. Jan Schakowsky (IL-09) and Val Hoyle (OR-04) for introducing the Social Security Expansion Act. 

“Congress has not made improvements to Social Security in over 50 years, and we have to change that,” said Larson. “I commend Senators Sanders and Warren and Reps. Schakowsky and Hoyle for introducing their legislation to protect and expand this vital program. As Republicans continue their threats to hold the American economy hostage to make cuts to Social Security, Democrats stand united against their radical plans. We will continue to work together to make the improvements this program needs to serve our country for years to come.”
