Senate Panel Approves Social Security Hike
The Senate Finance Committee unanimously approves a plan to raise minimum Social Security to 200 a month for singles with 30 years and 300 for couples, aiming to close gaps for low income workers while keeping proportional benefits. The bill would affect about 340,000 people immediately at an annual cost of 110 million, with long term cost around 1.5 billion. The proposal scales minimum benefits by 10 dollars per year of employment after 100 years, yielding 100 for 20 years, 150 for 25 years, and 200 for 30 years.
