Council of Seniors Works to Enhance Social Security

Extra retirement income can help seniors make holidays more special. That’s just one reason why Council of Seniors is determined to get Congress to pass The SAVE Benefits Act. The annual Social Security cost-of-living adjustment (COLA) hasn’t kept up with inflation in recent years. So, passing this bill is a must. If we succeed, the $581 missing from seniors’ benefits will be returned.

Please sign our petition right away to start helping. Washington politicians need to start putting seniors first after ignoring them for so long.
