GA Rep. Rich McCormick Calls for Cuts to Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid

December 5, 2024

On December 5, 2024, DPG Chair Congresswoman Nikema Williams released a statement in response to Rep. Rich McCormick (GA-6) calling for cuts to Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid:

“Rep. Rich McCormick’s call to cut Social Security, Medicaid and Medicare is a slap in the face to millions of Americans who have spent their lives paying into these essential programs. Rep. McCormick and his fellow Republicans should be ashamed of treating America’s seniors as a cost-cutting opportunity to pay for their Project 2025 agenda of tax handouts for their wealthy friends.”

McCormick made the comments on Fox News, saying: “We’re gonna have to have some hard decisions. We’re gonna have to bring in the Democrats to talk about Social Security, Medicaid, Medicare. There’s hundreds of billions of dollars to be saved, we just have to have the stomach to take those challenges on.”
