[Bird chirping] Female voice: When my husband and I were younger, we both worked awfully hard to put some money away for retirement. But now that I'm alone and taxes

00:00:09.330 - 00:00:17.570

and inflation are getting worse all the time, I don't know how much longer I'll be able to manage. [Church bell rings] If I have to give up my home.

00:00:17.570 - 00:00:24.030

I just don't know what I'll do. Male voice 1: Too many older Americans are living in poverty today because inflation is

00:00:24.030 - 00:00:30.950

robbing them of their savings, their pensions, and in time their dignity. Delaware's US Congressman Tom Evans is working

00:00:30.950 - 00:00:37.730

hard to protect older Americans from the ravages of inflation. He sponsored legislation to remove the unfair limit on earnings for

00:00:37.730 - 00:00:45.260

those receiving Social Security. It was Tom Evans who proposed a bill that would allow many senior citizens to take a federal tax credit on

00:00:45.260 - 00:00:52.430

a portion of the rent or property taxes they pay. Tom Evans is working hard in Congress today so that older Americans

00:00:52.430 - 00:01:02.340

can be more secure tomorrow. Tom Evans, he's working for you, for Delaware, for America. Male voice 2: Paid for by the Evans 78 Committee.
