The Concord Coalition is a nonpartisan, grassroots organization advocating fiscal responsibility while ensuring Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid are secure for all generations.

Political leaders brag to the general public the budget deficit was 'just' $22 billion in fiscal year 1997. But, that's a 'smoke & mirror' statement. It was 4 times higher. I am concerned for the economic future of our youth, compared to prior generations.
