To All Members of Congress Serving on Committees Considering H.R. 9519
Subject: Immediate Committee Action Needed on H.R. 9519
Dear Members of Congress,
I am writing to urge every committee member responsible for Social Security legislation to bring H.R. 9519 forward for discussion and a vote. This bill must not continue to sit without action. Social Security is a lifeline for millions of Americans, and the system is failing the very people it was designed to protect.
Social Security benefits are for living seniors, disabled Americans, and individuals and families living at or below the poverty line. These are people who worked, contributed, and trusted their government to uphold its promise. Today, that promise is eroding, and too many are being left behind.
This nation consistently finds the resources to fund wars, explore the moon, and support the wealthiest one percent. Yet the program that protects our most vulnerable citizens continues to fall behind the cost of living, inflation, and basic human needs. That imbalance is not just a policy failure — it is a moral failure.
H.R. 9519 is a necessary step toward repairing and strengthening Social Security. Advancing this bill in committee is not an act of charity; it is an act of responsibility. It is time for our representatives to prioritize the people who built this country, raised families, served communities, and kept our economy moving.
I urge you to move H.R. 9519 forward, hold a vote in committee, and demonstrate that Congress is committed to protecting seniors, disabled Americans, and those struggling to make ends meet. They cannot wait any longer.
Thank you for your attention and your service.
Sincerely,
Arturo Sanchez
San Antonio, Texas
