The Expand Social Security Caucus is a congressional caucus in the United States House of Representatives and United States Senate, consisting of members that advocate for the expansion of Social Security. It has 17 members in the Senate[1] and over 150 in the House.[2]

According to Senate co-chair Bernie Sanders, the group was formed partly in response to President Donald Trump's recent claims that Democrats "want to destroy [your] Social Security".
