On the recordFebruary 28, 1996
What has happened in this Congress which I think is also significant is the fact we talked about rolling back the 1993 Social Security tax on our seniors and allowing seniors to earn more. They were capped at $11,200. By our legislation they will be able to earn more without deductions from Social Security tax. I think that is important in order to free people up, give them the independence and let them decide what to do with their own money.
