In a speech, Biden defends social security as “sacred promise”

Former President Joe Biden emphasized the importance of protecting social security, calling her a “sacred promise” in her first public pronouncement since leaving office. Speech occurs while many democrats hold a national day of mobilization against the dreaded cuts in the program.

“Social Security is more than a government program, it is a sacred promise we made as – a sacred promise,” Biden said during the 2025 conference of defenders, counselors and representatives of people with disabilities.

He stated that millions of people who contribute to the program since the beginning of their professional lives have these resources when they need it.

“We never should never betray this confidence or turn our backs on this obligation,” said Biden, highlighting the measures he adopted to protect social security during his term.
