Congressional Response: Representative Bob Filner (D-51st, CA) Responds To Your COLA Petition

Thank you for contacting me about H.R. 2262, legislation that would base your Social Security Cost-of-Living Adjustment (COLA) on a seniors-only formula.

I wholeheartedly agree that senior citizens need a fair COLA in order to keep up with expenses that rise each year.  Their COLA should be based on a formula that reflects their special costs, such as medical expenses.  I support H.R. 2262, and I have co-sponsored this bill, as you requested.

You can count on me as one Congressman who will consistently fight for our senior citizens, and I appreciate your support in this fight.

Sincerely,
Bob Filner
Member of Congress
