President Biden warned Tuesday that a GOP takeover of Congress would have dire consequences for Social Security and Medicare, taking aim at Florida’s Republican senators in a state where the popular safety-net programs have numerous beneficiaries.
since he released a controversial policy plan in February saying that all federal laws, including those establishing Social Security and Medicare, should expire after five years if Congress does not renew them.
Biden also brought up Sen. Ron Johnson , who is up for reelection and has proposed that Congress vote on whether to keep Social Security and Medicare every year, rather than every five years as Scott suggested.“And then along came Sen. Johnson from Wisconsin. He says five years is too long to wait,” Biden said. “Every year — every year — it should be on the chopping block.”
Biden has also invoked a favorite line of his, telling those assembled, “This is not your father’s Republican Party.” The president has spoken in stark terms about the threats the party poses to American democracy, while noting that not all Republican lawmakers fall into that bucket.
