I thank you again for your leadership in the fight to preserve Social Security, to stop the privatization, to stop the raid on the trust fund, and to stop the reduction in benefits. Without the participation of the 30-somethings, we would not have been as successful as we were. But the threat still looms. The President and the leadership of this House talks about it, and the leadership of the Republican Party nationally talks about it, and the President's staff also talks about it. This is something that is an ongoing fight. With you in the forefront, with you as a voice for your generation, and as a voice for our country, that we will prevail. Thank you.
