White House distances Biden from 1975 bill to sunset Social Security: 'Not part of the president's agenda'
Fox News
The White House is distancing President Biden from his 1975 legislative proposal to sunset federal programs such as Social Security and Medicare.
Asked to contrast the past positions of Biden and Sen. Rick Scott, R-Fla. – who Biden marked as a lawmaker aiming to end Social Security and Medicare – Jean-Pierre dismissed the comparison.

"The president ran on protecting Medicare and Social Security from cuts, and he reiterated that in the State of the Union. He's been very clear these past couple of years. Rick Scott has the opposite point," Jean-Pierre told the press. "That's just what we're seeing from Scott. He's actually doubling down, tripling down, quadrupling down on that – on his view. And his plan that would sunset both programs. So Scott did that again just this week. I think he did that this morning."
