Rep. Adam Smith — US Representative for Washington District 9
Our seniors deserve the protection of #SocialSecurity, it’s one of the most critical programs our country has ever created. Prior to the creation of Social Security, the poverty rate for senior citizens was over 50%. It has been reduced to single digits.
This program helps give seniors the dignity they deserve. It needs to be strengthened and expanded to make sure it’s there for everyone. #ExpandSocialSecurity

On the holiest day in the Jewish year, I would to wish those reflecting a meaningful #YomKippur. May the new year bring peace, prosperity and strength to all.
