In Congress, Ron DeSantis voted for three failed budget resolutions in 2013, 2014 and 2015 that called for changes to Medicare and Social Security. Even if they had passed, nonbinding resolutions alone do not change law.
transitioned Medicare to a premium support system by 2019 for new beneficiaries, and raised the Medicare retirement age to 70 and indexed it to life expectancy. It also included this policy statement:"Current Medicare benefits are preserved for those in or near retirement."
The Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget referred to these savings as"cuts" but that requires further explanation. Putnam’s ad omits that we face some challenges in funding these programs in the future. Projections show that both Medicare and Social Security lack fiscal balance. It’s likely Congress will have to make changes to current law in the coming years.
