Washington, May 2: President Donald Trump addressed a gathering of seniors in Florida, announcing that his administration has implemented “no tax on Social Security.” He presented this initiative as a key policy ahead of the upcoming midterm elections.
Speaking at ‘The Villages,’ one of America’s largest retirement communities, Trump stated, “We are here to celebrate a policy that benefits every senior citizen in the country, and that is no tax on Social Security. It is already in effect.”
He claimed that this initiative is part of his broader tax reform. Trump referred to his “Great Big, Beautiful Bill” as the largest tax cut in American history, asserting that over 51 million seniors are now paying zero federal tax.
Criticizing the policies of his predecessor, Joe Biden, Trump argued that inflation severely impacted seniors during Biden’s tenure, while his administration has improved the situation.
He also mentioned that millions of undocumented immigrants have been removed from Social Security and Medicare under reforms, helping to curb fraud.
In the healthcare sector, Trump claimed that his government has achieved historic reductions in drug prices. He noted that starting July 1, weight-loss medications like Ozempic and Wegovy will be available under Medicare for about $50 per month.
On the economic front, Trump highlighted a strong stock market and record-high retirement funds (401k). He addressed Florida’s seniors, stating that tax refunds have significantly increased. “In Florida, we have given over $13 billion to 2.5 million seniors,” he argued, suggesting these changes will enhance people’s lifestyles—allowing for more family time and dining out.
Mary Ellis, a woman present at the event, expressed that this policy has greatly benefited her and her husband. TV personality Phil McGraw also supported the initiative, stating that taxing Social Security is akin to “double taxation.”
In conclusion, Trump touched on national security and foreign policy, asserting that the U.S. will not allow any “dangerous country” to acquire nuclear weapons. He urged supporters to vote in the midterm elections.
