Rally Doubleheader Tomorrow(Metropolitan Washington Council, AFL-CIO)

Saying that it would reduce Social Security benefits, the Maryland/DC Alliance for Retired Americans (ARA), AFGE Local 1923 and their allies will rally tomorrow against the proposed “Chained CPI.” The ARA warns that the seemingly arcane change in cost-of-living adjustments to Social Security benefits could cost retirees thousands of dollars. “The chained CPI is a back door way of trying to balance the budget on the backs of America’s seniors!” says ARA. The noontime rally on Tuesday will be at Social Security National Headquarters in Baltimore. Also at noon tomorrow, CWA is heading up a "Give Me 5" demo in front of the Chamber of Commerce (downtown DC, Connecticut & I) about the urgent need to get confirmation of the full five members of the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB). See On The Line above for full details on both events.
