As an increasingly marginalized group, elder citizens must take the lead in resisting the Trump regime’s efforts to destroy the social safety net that was built during the past 90 years. Here’s how.
Excellent article. It should be read by every elder on Substack. Although I share information, make calls, and send emails and letters to my legislators and others, I cannot participate in protests as I have limited mobility. I have contacted organizers coordinating local protests but none thus far have made accommodations for the elderly and disabled. I find this very disappointing. How can you protest cutting social security, Medicare and Medicaid if the very people that would be impacted are excluded from planning and participation?

Thanks, Evelina. Keep up the good fight!!
