Latinos for a Secure Retirement

Latinos for a Secure Retirement Our mission is to safeguard the security of seniors.

We seek to protect Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid, improve retirement savings among Latinos, and ensure access to life saving vaccinations by mobilizing the Latino community. The Latinos for a Secure Retirement (LSR) coalition was launched in 2011 to serve as the pre-eminent voice for the Hispanic Americans in the fight to defend Social Security as new threats emerged against the 75 year-old

program. LSR’s mission includes protecting Social Security, strengthening Medicare, increasing pension access and financial literacy, ensuring Latino seniors get equal access to Older American Act services, and working to ensure more Latinos are in key policy and advocacy positions important to an aging population. The LSR coalition brings together some of the strongest and most prominent advocates for Latinos in the country including the League of United Latin American Citizens (LULAC), the Labor Council for Latin American Advancement (LCLAA), The Hispanic Federation, the National Hispanic Council on Aging (NHCOA), MANA- A National Latina Organization, SER- Jobs for Progress National, Inc., the Institute for the Puerto Rican/Hispanic Elderly, the American GI Forum, the National Association for Hispanic Elderly, and the National Hispanic Medical Association.

For the sake of Social Security’s future, we need to vote Republicans out of office this November, and replace them with Democrats who will hold the Trump administration accountable. My trip to Ohio was just the beginning.

It's time to "scrap the cap" and make millionaires and billionaires pay the same rate into Social Security as everyone else!

The Social Security payroll tax is capped at $184,500 in 2026. Some high earners have already stopped paying into the program for the year.

LSR was honored to participate in NHCOA's Congressional briefing last week.

was created to protect older adults and people with disabilities who are living in poverty. However, the program still operates under rules written in 1972, even though the cost of living continues to rise. 📈💸 And millions of Americans in Puerto Rico and other territories are still excluded. 🇺🇸🇵🇷🇬🇺🇦🇸🇺🇸

It’s time for an update! Join us for the bipartisan reintroduction of the Supplemental Security Income Restoration Act and the release of a new Roosevelt Institute report outlining how this legislation can reduce .
