Resolution of Soar 11-3
RESOLUTION: SOAR 11-3
Officers and membership affirm the following:
We shall not support any effort to cut Social Security benefits,
Medicare or Medicaid benefits currently being debated by our political
leaders nor shall we support any institution advocating such cuts. We
shall withhold any political or financial support to "cutters" of
these programs now and in the future.
Social Security or Medicare did not contribute to the budget crisis
and to hold hostage these programs is insane and unneeded.
What did contribute to the problem, unpaid wars, tax cuts for upper
income and corporate welfare, out sourcing jobs, trade laws none of
which are being addressed. Negotiation of drug prices would save
billions over the next decade. Bringing home troops from Iraq would
also save tremendous amounts. Going back to Clinton tax rates would
save billions and more
Balancing the books on the backs of ourselves, our children and
grandchildren will not be tolerated.
