DeMint Fails to Lead Charge Towards "Private Accounts"

Members of Americans United for Change, joined forces to face off and win against Sen. Jim DeMint of South Carolina in what was an attempt by key Republicans in Congress to pass a bill that would privatize social security.



Senator DeMint has tried and failed to pass this very amendment for the third year in a row. DeMint's move comes closely after a statement made by John McCain stating that he would revive a previously rejected privatization proposal made by President Bush 2005.
