Resolutions Needed for Submission to the State and CD for the DPW Platform

This is your opportunity to influence the Democratic Party of WI Platform.

Resolutions need to be presented at either the March or April Winnebago Dems meeting. They must be no more than 100 words and in a ‘Whereas” “Therefore, Resolved” format, such as this one:

1 Whereas, Social Security is a benefit that survivors, disabled and retired millions rely on;

2 Whereas, full benefits can be paid until 2052 according to the Congressional Budget Office

3 and 80 percent thereafter;

4 Whereas, increasing the income cap on FICA will make Social Security solvent beyond 2075;

5 Whereas, private Social Security accounts will cause the government $2 trillion in transition

6 costs; and

7 Whereas, Social Security is the principal income for 2/3rds of retirees, and for 1/3rd it is their

8 only income;

9 Therefore, resolved, the DPW opposes any privatization of the Social Security system and

10 favors an increase in the income cap.

Please have any resolutions ready for the meeting March 11th.
