DC insider and GOP Senate candidate Michael Whatley’s toxic agenda is a “backdoor for privatizing Social Security” and threatening the earned benefits of North Carolinians, all to give billionaires a tax handout. 

Whatley called the GOP budget plan a “huge win” and the “embodiment” of his agenda — the same plan Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said was a “backdoor for privatizing Social Security.” 

“Michael Whatley is a DC political hack and Big Oil lobbyist who will always put billionaires and special interests ahead of working families,” said Mallory Payne, senior communications advisor for the North Carolina Democratic Party. “North Carolinians will hold him accountable for championing an agenda that threatens Social Security.”
