The 2024 presidential primary season in New Hampshire is a great time to learn more about Social Security and find out where the candidates stand on protecting the federal program.
Social Security’s trust funds—which pay out retirement, survivor and disability benefits—could run short of money in 2034 unless Congress acts to shore up its finances, according to the most recent report from the trustees who oversee the funds.
Seventy-six percent of Granite State residents 50 and older say Social Security is an extremely or very important issue in deciding their vote, according to a 2022 AARP New Hampshire survey.
“Social Security is your money—you earned it through a lifetime of hard work,” says Christina FitzPatrick, AARP New Hampshire’s state director.
