Alex Lawson was born and raised in Illinois, where as a young man, he became very passionate about various causes involving helping those in need. His desire to help others eventually led him to Washington, DC, where he became one of the founding members of an organization called Social Security Works, whose mission statement is very simple. They are ‘fighting to protect and expand Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid; lower drug prices; ensure economic justice for all; and guarantee health care as a human right—because everyone deserves to live in dignity.’
I met Alex at a conference here in Billings a few weeks ago, where he gave an excellent talk on how important Social Security, Medicaid, and Medicare are to our country’s future, and I was thrilled that he agreed to an interview. Hope you enjoy!
