David Trone on Social Security

 

 


Cosponsored bill to keep social security trust fund solvent

Maryland Congressman David Trone was joined by Connecticut U.S. Representative John Larson about legislation to keep the social security trust fund solvent, and then some. Both lawmakers are behind a bill to fortify the federal program giving seniors income stability in their retirement years and affordable health benefits. "Medicare, Medicaid and Social Security--Congressman Larsen has a phenomenal bill that will fix Social Security for the next 75 years," said Trone.

Social Security works but needs cap raised on taxable wages

Social Security is one of the most successful programs in American history. It's estimated that the program keeps 22 million Americans from living in poverty. The program will face challenges as our population continues to age. The number of workers per retiree is declining. If no action is taken, there will not be sufficient funds to pay out full Social Security by 2034. To fix the funding, we should increase the cap on taxable wages.
