The bottom 20 percent of earners get a 35-percent increase over what is scheduled, a more than 60-percent increase over what is payable.
I can remember about 8 years ago during the base realignment and closure (BRAC) process, Jamie was extremely involved in that very difficult and arduous process.
It was incredibly important that we not only made Social Security solvent, but we lifted the bottom 20 percent dramatically.
Jamie has exceptionally good judgment that will serve him very, very well in this position.
