Secure Our Future Announces 2008 Presidential Candidates Web Site
Senator Dodd admits: “Certainly, we have no ideas”


Washington, D.C. – Secure Our Future, a new organization dedicated to protecting the retirement security of younger generations, announced in a Capitol Hill press conference at noon today the launch of a Web site featuring original video interviews with 2008 presidential candidates.

The site includes a transcript from the July 23 Democratic YouTube/CNN debate in which Senator Dodd admitted in response to a question about Social Security reform, “Certainly, we have no ideas.” (See http://www.secureourfuture.org/election08dodd.php.)

U.S. Rep. Marsha Blackburn addressed nearly 100 young activists at the Rayburn House Office Building lunch event, which was co-sponsored by the Independent Women’s Forum, Leadership Institute and 60 Plus.

The 2008 presidential candidates Web site features original video interviews and research conducted by Students for Saving Social Security, a project of Secure Our Future. In addition to making clear the position of each candidate on Social Security reform, the site includes information about upcoming events, ways to get involved on campus and voter registration. To visit the site, go to http://www.secureourfuture.org/election08.

“Young people are looking for presidential candidates who will protect our retirement security,” says Jo Jensen, the executive director of Secure Our Future. “We deserve a clear plan for Social Security reform from every candidate, including Senator Dodd.”
