Congress: Kilmer a strong advocate for seniors
U.S. Rep. Derek Kilmer knows America must uphold its promises to our seniors.
As a Social Security senior who stills works, I am very aware of attacks on the Social Security and Medicare programs. That’s why I’m proud to have a federal representative who’s working to protect and expand these benefits, not cut them
Kilmer is a sponsor of the Seniors Have Eyes, Ears, and Teeth Act (HR576) and the Social Security 2100 Act. It improves cost-of living increases, raises minimum benefits and extends the program through the year 2100.
Now more than ever we need a representative with a record of supporting seniors in our region.
