Senate Set To Expand Social Security Benefits
The House approved a sweeping social security expansion 333 to 14 and sent the measure to the Senate. It would cover 46 million workers, raise minimum old age benefits to 25 dollars, and boost maximums for couples. New disability insurance and higher payroll taxes would fund the program, with self employed and domestic workers newly included. The move aligns with President Truman's Fair Deal, though he sought broader coverage.
