Republicans are in support of dangerous cuts to Social Security and Medicaid that will screw over their constituents in order to pay for their billionaire tax cut. Empowered by their allies in Congress like Ryan Mackenzie (PA-07), Donald Trump and his supporters have led an aggressive effort to decimate Social Security’s workforce and infrastructure. These are cuts that target the core stability of this earned benefit American workers rely on.
“Mackenzie has enabled cuts that will gut Social Security and Medicaid. He’s responsible for this, and while his voters are struggling to afford groceries and health care, they won’t forget Mackenzie’s betrayal,” said American Bridge 21st Century spokesperson Nico Delgado.
Pennsylvanians who depend on Social Security, Medicaid, and SNAP will suffer as a result:
- Approximately 177,758 of Mackenzie’s constituents in Pennsylvania’s 7th District rely on Social Security.
Approximately 125,100 (20%) of Mackenzie’s constituents in Pennsylvania’s 7th District are covered by Medicaid or CHIP, and about 40,000 people in the district have used SNAP.
