Ending the two-child limit is not enough if families are still hit by the overall benefit cap.
We need honesty about who is helped — and who is still being pushed into hardship.

#SocialSecurity #EndChildPoverty
A Green Party quote graphic about the overall benefit cap. The background shows a blurred image of a calculator and financial charts. The headline reads “Households Still Hit by Overall Benefit Cap.” Below, a quote from Natalie Bennett says she is asking the Government how many households affected by the end of the two-child benefit cap will still see a reduction in Universal Credit because of the overall benefit cap, and how many will see no financial gain at all. A small circular photo of Natalie Bennett appears near the bottom, alongside her name and title, Green Party Peer, and the Green Party logo.

Rep. John Larson says it's past time for Congress to look into DOGE mischief at the Social Security Administration. "Where is all this supposed fraud, waste, and abuse that they used as an excuse to cut 7,000 workers???" WATCH HERE::: @repjohnlarson.govpeeps.us #doge #SSA #socialsecurity #musk

#Tip: America needs to help family #caregivers remain financially independent.

The #SocialSecurity Caregiver Credit Act would give caregivers credits for up to 5 years for caring for dependents* for 80+ hours a month, helping us build retirement earnings.

Musk, Zuckerberg, and Bezos will stop paying into Social Security in early January. The rest of us will contribute throughout the year. It's time to adjust or scrap the cap!

If they actually get rid of social security and bring back Filial responsibility? A whole bunch of elders are going to end up murdered. Or worse. By the time it goes into effect, that means us gen xers. Be nice to your kids.

My mom called me on Saturday because she got her SS statement for 2026. Even with the 2.8% increase, her monthly payments are going down by $50 a month. Her Medicare premium and her taxes have eaten her increase and more. She’s losing $600 this year.

Thanks President Trump!
