The top Republican on the Senate budget committee championed a plan to drastically cut Social Security and Medicare, another in a series of signs that the GOP is gearing up to try and slash the cherished programs.

Sen. Jeff Sessions (R-AL) on Monday praised the "roadmap" put forth by his Republican House counterpart, budget committee chairman Rep. Paul Ryan (R-WI), which would largely privatize Social Security and voucherize Medicare.
