The people in his Chicago district elected Dan Rostenkowski to Congress, hence this letter to The Tribune. What this congressman does in Washington, D.C., to our Social Security system affects every person, those who are on Social Security and those who will be on it. His proposed cuts in the cost of living increase would reduce payments by $48 million over five years and force 400,000 recipients below poverty level.

His plan must be blocked before it is too late.
