Republican Sens. Marco Rubio of Florida and Mitt Romney of Utah, with House co-sponsor Ann Wagner of Missouri, unveiled a paid family leave bill on Wednesday, which would require interested new parents to make changes to their Social Security strategy.

Say goodbye to the program if you try that. Everyone will immediately borrow as much as allowed before it’s all gone.

I guess past generations weren’t smart enough (/s) to demand as much stuff as today’s citizens do.

Makes me angry. They are doing everything they can to submarine SS.

As if SS wasn’t in trouble already. Sure, that’s the ticket. Bankrupt it quicker.

Bankrupting SS quicker is a GOOD thing.

Marco Rubio is a less abrasive Jeff Flake. Lied to everyone that he was a tea party guy to get elected, then flipped left immediately upon winning. He’s a bit more careful than Flake to roll it out a little less “in your face”, that’s the only difference.

(Federally) paid family leave, with the option to “borrow” against Soc-Security.

Hmm.

What could possibly go wrong?!?

It’s called “pandering to a specific demographic”. ‘rats do it constantly.
