That is one reason that I and others have proposed reforming Social Security to include a flat, universal benefit set at the poverty level that would go to all retirees regardless of income or labor force participation.
Wyden advocates for a universal Social Security benefit for all retirees.

My heart goes out to the innocent victims of today’s horrific shooting at Silver Rail Elementary School and their loved ones now facing the awful consequences of yet another school shooting in America. The best way to honor these victims…
This is another desperate attempt by a failed president to escape Americans’ revulsion with his failed agenda, amounting to one tank of Trump-inflated gas.
The best way to honor these victims is to at long last pass common-sense gun laws that reduce the risks of more children, parents, teachers and staff forced to live in fear of similar nightmares for their schools.
These unsung heroes deserve recognition for their tireless efforts to keep our communities safe and healthy, and I’m honored to be leading this effort in Congress.
