The Social Security Fairness Act, designed to expand benefits for millions of beneficiaries by repealing certain provisions that curtail their monthly checks, was passed by the House last week as efforts intensify to get it passed by the Senate before the December 31 deadline. "Workers should be able to count on the retirement benefits they've earned," Senator Elizabeth Warren, D-MA, recently told CBS News. "It's time to pass the Social Security Fairness Act so government workers and their families and people with disabilities are not punished for earning multiple sources of retirement income."
