In his very first speech upon winning the Speakership, Mike Johnson (R-LA) called for the ‘immediate’ creation of a fast-tracked commission that could take Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid behind closed doors and cut them.

Send a message to Congress: We know that a vote for a ‘fiscal commission’ is a vote to cut Social Security and Medicare!
