It would raise benefits for 2.5 million retirees and survivors, boost future benefits by about 80 percent, expand public assistance funding by 160 million, create a new totally disabled category, and raise payroll taxes through 1970. The plan aims to add 11 million workers to the insurance program, with Senate resistance likely delaying final action until 1950.
