Please join TARA (Texas Alliance for Retired Americans) and the HOCTX coalition for a Social Security Birthday Party featuring a performance by the Raging Grannies and BIRTHDAY CAKE!

Join TARA Austin and the Raging Grannies to CELEBRATE Social Security’s 90th birthday and DEFEND Social Security for current and future generations.

For nearly a century Social Security has been the foundation of retirement security for generations of Americans, paying benefits in full and on time every single month. Now our earned retirement benefits are under attack. Thousands of workers who make Social Security function have been fired and offices across the country have been closed.

Now, the billionaire Treasury Secretary has revealed a “back door” plan to privatize Social Security. And it is no coincidence that Abbott is currently trying to add 5 more GOP House seats by drawing gerrymandered maps before the 2026 elections. He knows the American people will not allow Social Security to be privatized in a fair election and that they don’t support his cuts to Medicaid, Medicare and food assistance.

Join us Friday, August 15 at 3:00 pm in front of the Capitol at 11th & Congress. We’ll have signs and party treats. You bring your resolve to defend Social Security, Medicaid, Medicare, food assistance ... and fair elections. This fight is far from over.

Just a few speakers, music and cake! There will be direct action to take at the event…
