AMAC stands for The Association of Mature American Citizens. Anyone over 50 can join. It is the conservative alternative to AARP. AMAC is focused squarely on protecting the interests of America’s seniors. They offer an alternative perspective on how to best solve the problems faced by seniors today, and they are on our side when it comes to fighting runaway taxes, excessive government involvement in our day-to-day lives, and the erosion of accountability at all levels of government. They feel it is time for the people to speak out for the traditional American values of faith, family, and freedom. They promise to be our advocate and to fight the good fight.
But they are more than a political advocacy organization. They offer a variety of consumer benefits for their members including travel discounts, competitively priced insurance products, Roadside Assistance, retail and restaurant discounts, and a host of other benefits and savings opportunities in between. They are continually developing their slate of offerings on both a national and local level, with new merchants being added nearly every day. In fact, they encourage their members to help recruit vendors and merchants in their local area as part of their effort to offer an ever-expanding network of discounts. It is their goal to expand their local discounts program to every town in America. Help spread the word by asking your favorite local merchants to contact them about being included in the program!
They offer a variety of benefits to its members, such as insurance: medicare plans, health insurance for those under 65, RV insurance (through National General, a company endorsed by Escapees), boat & yacht insurance; financial planning, finance, automotive, travel & lodging, health & wellness, house & home, lifestyle & entertainment, gifts, and local discounts.
The folllowing is their stance on key issues:
Health Care
AMAC does not support the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, otherwise known as ObamaCare. We believe it should be repealed and replaced. AMAC believes it is a serious mistake to have the Federal government interfere and dictate how medical care is provided in this country. AMAC is presently developing an alternative health system to ObamaCare. Medicare should continue as-is with minor improvements, and more competition should be encouraged.
Social Security
AMAC has developed a Social Security Guarantee reform plan that ensures the solvency of Social Security for 75 years without raising taxes or using the chained CPI as a means of calculating cost of living adjustments. If you would like to receive a booklet detailing our reform plan, please make the request at [email protected]. We will mail you a copy free of charge.
Veterans Issues
AMAC fully supports all of those who have served and are currently serving the United States in the armed services. Therefore, we believe all active duty personnel and veterans deserve access to quality health care delivered in the most efficient way possible. AMAC believes veterans issues should remain a highly visible priority for any administration, and we champion these causes in order to underscore their importance.
Legalized Abortion
AMAC is pro-life. We are against abortion in principle and feel it is improper to allow government funding of abortions, except to save the life of the mother.
National DebtThe annual budget has gone out of control. The President and the Congress have lost sight of their responsibilities. If we do not manage our fiscal and financial condition, our nation is put in serious jeopardy. By continuing to borrow, we are putting a huge burden on our children and grandchildren. AMAC supports responsible spending, the elimination of wasteful programs and living within our means as a nation. AMAC strongly believes there should be a requirement that the federal government establish a budget each year and be held accountable for balancing it.
Second Amendment
AMAC supports the Constitution of the United States of America and our Bill of Rights, including the Second Amendment. Exercising the right to keep and bear arms demands the utmost responsibility, but we believe the Second Amendment guarantees our inalienable right to keep and bear arms. We urge all gun owners and users to be safe and responsible. Of course, firearms should only be obtained and used legally. We believe that all gun owners and users should attend courses led by certified instructors to learn the safe and proper use of firearms.
Taxes
AMAC strongly feels that American citizens are excessively taxed. There should be a reduction in income tax rates for all wage earners. Likewise, corporations are over taxed. When a corporation is taxed they simply increase the cost of their product or service and as a result, prices are increased. We also believe in tax reform and alternative methods of taxing and simplifying the process, like The FairTax or Flat Tax proposals.
Illegal Immigration
AMAC believes in sensible immigration reform. We don’t believe in racial profiling or the harassment of legal immigrants. AMAC supports the legal immigration process, including a requirement to learn the English language. AMAC does not believe in providing benefits for those who are in the United States illegally, and we support the use of E-Verify by all employers. AMAC believes that our borders should be strictly guarded and protected.
They are fighting for our freedom. Their national campaigns include the protection of our religious freedom and saving social security. They also believe that the current Medicare cuts enacted by Obamacare are killing seniors. Here is an excellent article on the subject.
We encourage you to join AMAC. They are on our side and fighting for us.
