Over the last week, Bloomberg reported Republicans would target Medicare and Social Security for cuts.

Yesterday, the Washington Post confirmed that report.

This morning, Jeremy Shaffer’s biggest backer, GOP Leader Kevin McCarthy, refused to tell Punchbowl News that a GOP House Majority wouldn’t target Medicare and Social Security.

DCCC spokesperson James Singer
“A vote for Jeremy Shaffer is a vote to allow Kevin McCarthy and MAGA Republicans in Washington to cut Medicare and Social Security benefits Pennsylvania seniors depend on.”
