Kent Conrad: “I think we do have a real challenge if so many new Senators do not know the history here.”

Social Security's financial challenge affects nearly our entire society, and the solutions will require a broad-based approach.

All the talk in the world doesn't matter if you don't actually get something done in the real world.

It takes guts to do that, and Chairman Arrington, you have certainly led the charge on having a commission.

We did a whole series of things in our Social Security reform not to discourage people from working, but to encourage them to continue working if they are able to do so.
