New SS Law Gets Signature
President Kennedy signed the 1961 Social Security Act into law boosting benefits and expanding coverage. The bill raises minimum payments from 33 to 40 dollars, allows early retirement at 62 with reduced lifetime benefits, eases coverage to include 160,000 more people, increases widow benefits to 82.5 percent, and lets retirees earn more part time pay without losing benefits. The cost rises by 825 million dollars in the first year funded by payroll tax increases for employees and employers, with self employed paying 1.5 percent more. First boosted checks go out in September to about 4.42 million beneficiaries.
