California Alliance Members Leading Protest Today at House Speaker McCarthy’s Office

The California Alliance for Retired Americans (CARA) lead a Day of Action to protect, improve and expand Medicare, Medicaid and Social Security on Friday. More than 700 CARA activists will demonstrate at the Bakersfield, CA office of House Speaker Kevin McCarthy to drive home the point that no cuts to the programs will be tolerated.

“CARA members are going into the belly of the beast,” said Joseph Peters, Jr., Secretary-Treasurer of the Alliance. “Speaker McCarthy certainly has the power to prevent cuts to Social Security and Medicare if he chooses.”
