Allyson Schwartz: “The President's budget really does, I believe, make very clear that we can't accept the status quo...”

We, as Democrats, believe that Social Security has been a strength for this country to be able to say to people as they age that you will not die in poverty, and it has worked.

The American people deserve to be able to trust their government for fairness and lack of bias, and that was violated.

It is stunning that House Republicans have the audacity to hold this hearing under the pretense that they care about poverty in our nation.

The Republican budget eviscerates important investments in education and initiatives to enable people to move into the middle class.
