Senate OKs Near Doubling of Social Security Payments
The Senate approved a Mansfield Byrd rider to the tax reform bill by 48 to 41 to raise minimum Social Security benefits and increase all payments by 15 percent. The plan costs about $6.2 billion and would raise the taxable wage base to $12,000 by 1973, with first larger checks in April for about 25 million beneficiaries. The move surpasses Nixon's 10 percent request and faces House review. A separate 15 percent boost was also advanced.
