- Description:
- Photographic print; newspaper assignment sheet attached to print verso: "A little over a hundred people showed up outside the capitol to show their concern for Notch reform and vowed to use the system to bring about awareness. Here some of the marchers sit comfortably in the shade. See Eugene Morris story." Signs the protestors are holding read "We just want what's ours"; "90 miles to equality"; "Social Security cheating ... babies..."; Social Security NOTCH unfair." “Notch” refers to the disparity in Social Security benefits paid to people born 1917 to 1926, and benefits paid to people born before and after, even with similar work and earnings records.
