Joe Biden Has Advocated Cutting Social Security Benefits 3 Times
For most retired workers, Social Security isn't just a check they receive each month -- it's a necessary source of income that helps sustain their way of life. For 20 years, national pollster Gallup has surveyed retirees and found that between 80% and 90% require their Social Security income, in some capacity, to make ends meet.
Understanding the importance of Social Security to current and future retirees is what made the program a key talking point for President Joe Biden during his State of the Union address to Congress and the American people nearly four weeks ago. Biden proudly remarked during his speech that, "[if] anyone tries to cut Social Security, we're going to stop it."
