These fun activities will bring out the kid in any adult and create pleasant memories for those around you.
Council of Seniors Wants You to Get All You’ve Earned in Benefits
When it comes to Social Security, you should get a treat, not tricked. That’s why Council of Seniors is working tirelessly to get Congress to pass The SAVE Benefits Act. This bill is needed to recover the portion of the Social Security cost of living adjustment (COLA) that was insufficient in recent years. Once passed, seniors will be reimbursed $581, money that’s belonged to them all along.
We hope you will please take time right now to sign our petition. Together we can show Congress how many people support this bill.
