Clinton backs separate Social Security agency
The plan, backed by President Clinton and Senator Moynihan, would create an independent Social Security agency within Health and Human Services. Officials say Moynihan will push a health bill from the Finance Committee by May, citing public confidence aims as 42 million beneficiaries rely on Social Security. The proposal contrasts with the secretary of health and human services who warns against splitting social security from Medicare Medicaid and related programs.
