I have introduced the Social Security 2100 Act that would repeal these provisions, among other changes that substantially benefit Social Security recipients.
I am also pushing for passage of my SWIFT Act, which would increase benefits for widows and widowers.
The Social Security Administration needs additional funding, I think that is an understatement, to support agency operations.
I will continue to push for robust funding for SSA, which will support investments in technology, hiring, and retention.
This legislation will change how Cost of Living Adjustments for Social Security benefits are calculated.
I am introducing the Boosting Benefits and COLAs for Seniors Act so adults can receive the benefit increases that they need.
I will never support cuts to Social Security. I think that is a fairly widespread view.
We must protect and strengthen Social Security so that Americans of every generation can continue to access this essential lifeline.
I support efforts in the Senate that will increase benefits, like the repeal of the windfall elimination provision and the Government pension offset.
We should be protecting and strengthening Social Security for those receiving benefits today and for future generations.

I wanted to talk to you about a bill that I have introduced to confront part of the problem.
