ttelephone conference alliance retired americans ja

Dear Alliance Friend and Activist, We sent thousands of letters to Congress, made hundreds of phone calls and held hundreds of events around the country to generate the grassroots support it took to protect retirement security for all Americans. Because of the actions of Alliance folks like you—calling and writing Congress, attending in-district actions, writing your local newspapers—the recent January deal to detour spending cuts did not include any cuts to Social Security, Medicare or Medicaid. Unfortunately, as you know, our work is not done; we are only safe until March 1st. Some members of Congress continue to press for cuts to the programs seniors depend on. Please join us for an important conversation about what the Alliance and our members friends like you can do to continue to protect Medicare, Social Security and Medicaid during the next round of negotiations in D.C. Click: http://afl.salsalabs.com/o/4055/signup_page/teleconf?tag=state for an exclusive conference call on January 24th at 2pm at Central Standard Time. The January 24th call will include a legislative briefing on: 1. What is in the recent budget deal that passed 2. What it means for seniors 3. What's at stake in the new Congress Most importantly, it will be an opportunity for activists like you from across the country to continue a conversation with us and among one another about how we can protect retirement security for all Americans. Hope you'll join us! Sincerely, Missouri Alliance for Retired Americans
