Reform Principles
The Alliance for Worker Retirement Security is a broad-based coalition of organizations dedicated to reforming the Social Security system to ensure an adequate retirement income and an opportunity for workers to create personal economic wealth.
Principles of the Alliance
- Permit workers to invest their retirement payroll taxes (FICA) in individually-directed personal retirement accounts (PRAs).
- Oppose an increase in payroll taxes.
- Guarantee a "safety-net" (minimum government benefit) for all retirees.
- Preserve the benefits of retirees and near-retirees.
- Oppose government investment in the stock market
- Oppose general revenue transfers (primarily income taxes) to Social Security in the absence of structural reform.
Mission of the Alliance
Develop and implement a strategy for passage of Social Security reform legislation that incorporates the principles of the Alliance.
