Democratic presidential hopefuls Joe Biden and Bernie Sanders are increasingly at odds over who is - and who isn't - an unwavering supporter of Social Security.
Democratic presidential candidate former Vice President Joe Biden speaks during a campaign event on foreign policy at a VFW post Wednesday, Jan. 22, 2020, in Osage, Iowa.
Sanders, a Vermont senator, has accused Biden of advocating for budget deals as a senator from Delaware that would have curtailed entitlement spending over time. During his decades on Capitol Hill, Biden supported a balanced budget constitutional amendment, but he says he would not have “cut” Social Security benefits as part of the deals.
“He’s indicated that was past,” Biden said, suggesting Sanders has shifted positions on guns in a way that’s more acceptable to Democratic primary voters.
